Rats
Rats are one of the most persistent and potentially dangerous pests that can invade homes and businesses. Known for their ability to adapt and thrive in various environments, rats can cause significant damage to property and pose serious health risks to you and your family. That's why effective rat control is essential.
Why Are Rats a Problem?
Health Hazards: Rats are carriers of numerous diseases such as leptospirosis, hantavirus, and salmonella. Their droppings, urine, and bites can expose humans to these harmful pathogens.
Property Damage: Rats have strong teeth that can chew through wood, electrical wiring, insulation, and even concrete. This can lead to structural damage and increase the risk of electrical fires.
Rapid Reproduction: A single pair of rats can multiply into hundreds within a year. This rapid breeding makes it crucial to address infestations immediately before they spiral out of control.
Signs of a Rat Infestation
Droppings: Small, dark, pellet-shaped droppings, usually found near food sources or nesting areas.
Gnaw Marks: Look for chewed wires, furniture, or walls as rats gnaw to keep their teeth sharp.
Scratching Noises: Often heard in walls, attics, or under the floorboards, especially at night when rats are most active.
Footprints & Smudges: Grease marks or smudges along walls and small footprints in dusty areas are telltale signs of rat activity.
