Rodent Proofing & Rat Removal

Rodents, including rats and mice, cause serious damage to properties and are a health risk to those living or working within an environment where rats and mice are present. Disease is spread, food is contaminated and even fires can ignite from gnawing through wiring. Rodent infestation can prove a serious problem and should be prevented and stopped professionally.

Signs of rodents

There are a number of signs that rats or mice may be residing in your business. If you think you may have a problem with rodents, keep an eye out for the following signs on your premises:

• Droppings – tend to be concentrated in specific areas such as food or key access points.
• Scratching noise – some rat species are nimble climbers and can often be heard scurrying in loft spaces. Other less agile species can often be heard grinding and chattering their teeth, or scurrying under floorboards or decking.
• Tracks & footprints – tail marks and footprints can usually be seen in dusty, lesser-used areas. If you suspect a rat infestation, laying a light layer of flour can help identify fresh tracks the morning after.
• Smudge marks – grease from their bodies can mark surfaces that are regularly used by rodents e.g. rats may rub against the same skirting boards each day as a guide due to their poor eyesight.
• Burrowing – some rat species will dig burrow networks for shelter and nesting next to a solid object e.g. sheds or garages.
