Rat Control Services
Rat activity can appear in different areas depending on the property. Some people notice droppings near food storage areas, while others hear scratching sounds in walls, ceilings, roof spaces, underfloor areas, garages or outdoor areas.
Rat Activity Around Food Areas
Rats are often noticed around kitchens, pantries, cupboards, drawers, bins, appliances, food storage areas and outdoor waste areas. A rat control booking can be discussed based on where droppings, movement or chewed items have been noticed.
Rat Dropping Concerns
Droppings may appear near skirting boards, cupboards, drawers, appliances, storage boxes, roof spaces, garages, sheds, bin areas or outdoor paths. The next step depends on where signs are appearing and how often activity is returning.
Scratching And Night Noise Concerns
Scratching, running or movement sounds may be heard at night around walls, ceilings, roof spaces, underfloor areas or storage spaces. The booking can be discussed based on where the sound is coming from and when it is most noticeable.
Entry Point Review Where Accessible
Possible entry areas can be reviewed where accessible. This may include gaps around doors, pipe areas, wall openings, garage edges, roof gaps, vents, outdoor access areas or other points rats may use to move through the property.
Rat Concerns Around Outdoor Areas
Outdoor bins, fences, gardens, sheds, garages, drains and storage areas may show signs of rat activity. Share where the signs are appearing when requesting a quote.
Rat Concerns With Other Pest Activity
If you are also noticing mouse activity, cockroaches, ants or other pests, mention this when requesting a quote so the booking can be discussed around the full property concern.
