Rat Infestation

The thought of rat Infestation makes us cringe. Usually, rats do not have a reputation as cuddly and cute pets as the fact that they are harbingers of diseases. Their existence makes us puke in disgust and can be unsettling.

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

Rat control is vital to keep us from several illnesses and germs. There are about a dozen of pervasive illnesses directly linked to rats. Around the globe, rats are known to spread more than 35 illnesses that can infect both pets and individuals, including plague, salmonellosis, leptospirosis and tularemia. The nearness of rats in establishments represent a genuine risk to human well-being. The disease threat alone is a justifiable cause for concern and for the execution of sound control procedures.

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 items and contamination of food, water and environment.

Monitoring the main indication of a speculated issue can help to definitely reduce the period of time expected to viably control an infestation. Rats can breed rapidly and can possibly form into a significant problem whenever left unmanaged.

Rats Footprints, Rub Marks & Damage

Footprints (going for walks tracks) – rats leave foot and tail marks in dusty, less-used regions of houses. Shining a flashlight at a low angle should show tracks . To identify if an infestation is active, sprinkle fine flour or talc along a small stretch of floor or on areas where you believe they crawl and you may find these tracks the following day.

Rub Marks – rats use established routes along skirting boards and walls due to their poor eyesight. Grease and dirt in their bodies leave smudges and dark marks on both objects and surfaces they repeatedly brush against. These marks may indicate rodent activity, but as smears can stay for a long period of time, they are not a superior indicator of an active infestation.

Gnaw marks – rats keep on gnawing on things made of wood and plastics to keep their teeth trimmed. This is because rats’ teeth grow continuously. You can find these gnawing marks on things and furniture and is one of the sure signs they are present in the area.
