No one likes to see pests drifting and crawling all over their homes. Just the thought of it already sends chills down the spine. Eew. imagine seeing them while you watch your favorite romantic flick or while you enjoy your day off from work. There are a lot of house pests that can linger in your homes or workplace premises if a place is unsanitary and filthy. You might do the job of inviting the number one pest there’s… rats!
Rats are known to spread diseases, injury property and contaminate food and animal feed. In the event that they enter your house, they can even present other unwelcome parasites like insects, lice and ticks.
That’s why, rat management is important for households and companies to prevent risk for property damages and as well to animal and human health. As we all know, every year, the death toll increases as lots of people are killed by acquiring diseases coming from rat infestation. These creepy creatures are known to spread over 35 diseases including plague, salmonellosis, leptospirosis and tularemia.
Rats are persistently aggressive rodents that once they gain access into homes and building premises, they feed on food they find, build their nest, breed and spread diseases. With this, they are considerably causing damage to property and contamination and items of food, water and environment.
Spotting an infestation as early as possible can resolve the issue and be able to effectively control an infestation. Rats can breed quickly and can possibly form to a major issue whenever left unmanaged.
As nocturnal creatures, rats are most active between dusk and dawn and usually hide from people during the day. It is often easier to spot signs of a issue, rather than the actual pest.
Watch out for the accompanying signs mentioned below, to learn if you’ve been infested with rodents:
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 could 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 indicate 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 with a grinding sound they make with their teeth called bruxing.
Footprints (running tracks) – rats leave foot and tail marks from dusty, less-used areas of buildings. Shining a strong flashlight at a low angle should reveal tracks clearly. To establish if an infestation is active, sprinkle fine flour or talc along a little stretch of floor near the footprints and check for fresh tracks the next day.
Rub Marks – rats use based routes alongside skirting walls and boards due to their poor eyesight. They leave marks mixed with grease and grime on areas where they crawl. These marks might also suggest rat activity, however as smears may also stay for an extended time period, they may be no longer a terrific gauge of a visible infestation.
Damage – rats have teeth that grow continuously. They need to gnaw on wood and plastic to keep them trim.
Nests – rats build nests in warm, hidden areas using shredded material such as newspaper and fabrics. Nests will frequently contain young rats and are often located close to a food source. Check behind and under appliances, such as fridges and freezers in or near your kitchen.
Burrows – sometimes, rats lived outdoors plus they create burrows for shelter, food storage and nesting. They dig out mostly if you’ve got a garden and create extensive burrow system.
If you have spotted signs of rat infestations, it is time to get professional treatment. Our qualified local service technicians are backed by international knowledge and innovation which can help you eliminate these naughty pests for good.
Will the gel that you use on the inside of my cupboards cause any contamination to the food inside?
We apply the gel only to places within the cupboard where insects are found. This means it will only be applied to cracks, crevices, and hinges.
How often should I call on your services for treatments?
We would recommend that treatments are carried out once or twice a year depending on the environmental conditions.
I am about to have renovations on my property. At what stage of this process should I call on your services?
The best time to do this would be after the various tradespeople have completed their work and at least a couple of days before you move in.
