Did an amazing job as we'd had birds fly down our chimney, also checked and cleared the other ornamental one,which had a nest in too. The birds will now have to find another home. Brilliant job done

Signs of a Rat Infestation

Identifying a rat infestation early can prevent significant damage and health risks. Look out for the following signs:

  • Droppings: Rat droppings are larger, dark, and capsule-shaped, commonly found in areas like attics, basements, and behind appliances. Unlike mice, rat droppings are more substantial and often clustered together. Their presence indicates active rat activity and poses significant health risks due to potential contamination and disease transmission.
  • Gnaw Marks: Rats have powerful teeth that continuously grow, leading them to gnaw on various materials such as wood, wires, pipes, and insulation. These gnaw marks are often larger and more pronounced than those made by mice. Damage to electrical wiring by rats can create serious fire hazards, making it crucial to address gnaw marks promptly.
  • Nests: Rats build nests using shredded paper, fabric, insulation, and other soft materials. These nests are typically found in hidden, secluded areas such as behind walls, in attics, basements, or under floorboards. Finding a rat nest indicates a well-established infestation, as rats tend to nest near food and water sources.
  • Noises: Rats are more likely to be heard at night when they are most active, making scratching, scurrying, or squeaking sounds in walls, ceilings, or under floors. These noises can indicate their movement and the extent of their activity within your property, often pointing to hidden nesting sites.
  • Grease Marks: Rats leave greasy smudges along walls, floors, and baseboards where they frequently travel. These marks are caused by the oils and dirt from their fur, combined with the grease they pick up from their environment. The presence of grease marks often outlines their habitual paths and entry points, helping to identify high-traffic areas.

Preventative Measures

To help keep your property free from Rats in the future, we recommend the following preventative measures:

  • Seal Entry Points: Close gaps and cracks in walls, doors, and windows to prevent rats from entering your property. This includes sealing around utility pipes, vents, and other potential entry points to block their access routes effectively.
  • Maintain Cleanliness: Keep food in sealed containers and maintain a clean living or working environment. Regularly clean up crumbs, spills, and food residues to reduce attractants and discourage rat activity.
  • Proper Waste Management: Ensure rubbish bins are tightly closed and regularly emptied to prevent rats from accessing food scraps. Use sturdy, lidded bins and store them away from the building to minimise the risk of attracting rats.
  • Landscape Management: Trim tree branches and shrubs away from your property to reduce potential nesting sites and prevent rats from gaining easy access to roofs and upper levels. Keeping vegetation well-maintained creates a less hospitable environment for rats.
