Just the thought of rats will surely send shivers down the spine due to the threat they bring not only in our homes and businesses but as well to our health.
No one really likes rats as they are thought of as a nuisance in both households and companies. They linger in our premises scavenging for food and build nests to breed. Their presence equals to distress, sanitation risk and health threats.
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 may 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 can be very persistent and should they manage to gain access into your home or business premises they could spread these diseases, causing appreciable damage and contamination of food. Even rats in the garden and outside can also pose tremendous risk, particularly since those areas are visited by children and pets.
Spotting an infestation as early as possible can resolve the matter and be able to effectively control an infestation. Rats can breed quickly and can possibly form into a major issue whenever left unmanaged.
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.
Watch out for the corresponding signs mentioned below, to learn if you have been infested with rodents:
Rat droppings – normally found in concentrated zones as rats create up to 40 droppings for each night. Brown rat droppings are dark brown in a tapered, spindle-shaped and they can take after a huge grain of rice
Scratching noises – think you may have rats in your rooftop? Black rats (also known as rooftop rat) are quickly Climbers and can enter passages and into attic spaces and top floor surface of structures. Hearing scratching and clamoring around during night time from above might indicate their presence. Brown rats, on the other hand, are less capable of climbers. You may hear them rushing underneath the decking, sheds and wood planks. They are significantly recognized through a pounding noise they make with their teeth known as bruxing.
Footprints (running tracks) – rats leave foot and tail marks from dusty, less-used areas of buildings. Shining a strong flashlight at a very low angle should reveal tracks clearly. To establish if an infestation is active, sprinkle fine flour or talc along a small stretch of floor near the footprints and await new tracks the following day.
Rub Marks – rats leave these marks on sheets and dividers where they go in and out of the premises. This is because of the poor vision. The marks are made up of oil and dirt that stuck on their bodies. When they crawl, they leave smears and dull blemishes on things and surfaces they run over and brush against. Seeing these imprints may indicate their presence.
Damages – rats have teeth that develop and grow over time. They have to chew on plastic and wood to keep them trim.
Nests – rats build nests in hot, hidden places using shredded material such as newspaper and fabrics. Nests will frequently contain young rats and are usually located close to a food source. Check behind and under appliances, such as fridges and freezers in or near your kitchen.
Burrows – brown rats are notable for burrowing and unearthing broad tunnel frameworks for shelter, food stockpiling and settling. Look for tunnels in fertilizer piles, under decking or gardens, or in carports.
If you’ve spotted signs of rat infestations, it’s time to get professional treatment. Our qualified local service technicians are backed by international knowledge and innovation which can help you get rid of 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.
