There are plenty of house pests that can linger in your homes or workplace premises if a place is unsanitary and dirty. You might do the job of inviting the number one pest there is… rats!

Rodents are known to disperse illnesses, harm property and contaminate water, food and sanitation. In the event that they can enter your house or business territory, they could present other unwelcome parasites such as bugs, lice and ticks.

That’s why, rat control is important for households and businesses to stop risk for property damages and as well to human and animal health. As we all know, every year, the death toll increases as lots of men and women are killed by acquiring diseases coming from rat infestation. These creepy creatures are known to disperse over 35 diseases including plague, salmonellosis, leptospirosis and tularemia.

Rats can be very persistent, and if they figure out how to obtain entrance to your home or business premises, They could spread these germs, causing extensive harm and food contamination. Even rats in the garden and outdoor rodents can similarly display tremendous hazard to pets and children.

Spotting an infestation as early as possible can resolve the issue and be able to effectively control an infestation. Rats can breed rapidly and can possibly form into a major issue whenever left unmanaged.

Rat Droppings & Scratching Noises

As nocturnal creatures, rats are most active between dusk and dawn and usually hide from humans during the day. It is often easier to spot signs of a issue, as opposed to the actual pest.

To ensure that you have rat infestations, watch out for these signs below:

Rat droppings – rats defecate and produce droppings up to 40 at night. These wastes are usually dark brown in Colour and resemble a large grain of rice

Scratching noises – think you might have rats on your roof? Black rats (also known as the roof rat) are agile climbers and can easily get access into attic spaces and upper floors of buildings. The hearing scratching noises at night from above may suggest their presence. Brown rats on the other hand, are less adept climbers. You may hear they scurry under decking, sheds and floorboards. They are more likely to be identified by a grinding noise they make with their teeth called bruxing.

Rats Footprints, Rub Marks & Damage

Footprints (running tracks) – rats leave tail and foot mails in temperate, less-utilised zones. To know if an infestation is active, sprinkle fine flour or powder along the tiny stretch of floor or to areas where you think they’re crawling and then check for new tracks the following day.

Smear marks – because rats can go in and out of any areas in the home or building, they often leave rub marks or smear marks which are made from grease and their fur. You can find these smudges left on furniture or walls that includes unpleasant odor.

Damage – rats have teeth that develop continuously. They wish to gnaw on wood and plastic to maintain them trim.

Rats Nests & Burrows

Nest – rats construct homes in warm, shrouded places using destroyed material, such as, paper and fabrics. The nest will frequently contain young rats and are normally found close to a food source. Check behind and under machines, for example, coolers and fridges in or close to your kitchen.

Burrows – rats like to hide in hidden places and they sometimes use shredded materials such as paper and fabric to build their nests. Check out your backyard for a heap of dirt because this can indicate that rats have built their burrows. You may also check the regions like loft, basement, below the furniture or appliances.

Once you are sure that your property has been invaded by these rodents, it’s good to seek out the help of qualified rodent control professionals.
