Rats
FAQ's
Signs of rats include droppings, burrows, gnaw marks, traps being sprung, hearing scurrying in walls, and a musky rodent smell. Seeing one signals a larger infestation.
Rats nest in sewers, sheds, attics and basements. They enter through cracks, holes, loose vents, and openings in foundations. Any gap wider than 1/2 inch can allow entry.
Traps and rodenticides placed strategically along baseboards and known runways effectively control rats. Sealing all possible entries shuts them out permanently.
Rats are ideally dealt with by a professional.
Rodent-proof by sealing cracks, holes and gaps with steel wool, caulk and metal kick plates. Keep vegetation far from home exterior. Clean up clutter and food spills. Secure rubbish and food storage.
