Signs You May Have A Rat Problem
Rat infestations are not always immediately visible. Some of the most common warning signs include:
Scratching Noises
Noises in loft spaces, ceilings, wall cavities or beneath floorboards, particularly at night.
Rat Droppings
Small dark droppings found near food sources, cupboards, lofts or hidden areas of the property.
Gnaw Marks
Damage to wood, cables, pipes, packaging and stored items caused by rats constantly chewing.
Unpleasant Odours
A strong musky smell can often indicate an established infestation.
Nesting Materials
Shredded paper, insulation and other soft materials gathered together to create nesting areas.
Sightings Of Rats
Seeing live rats during the day can often indicate a larger infestation requiring immediate attention.
Why Rat Infestations Shouldn't Be Ignored
Many people hope a rat problem will disappear on its own, but infestations often become worse over time.
Rats can:
- Damage electrical wiring
- Contaminate food storage areas
- Damage insulation and building materials
- Spread bacteria and disease
- Reproduce quickly if left untreated
- Create ongoing issues for homes and businesses
Professional treatment helps tackle the infestation safely and identify how rats are gaining access to the property.
How the Rat Process Works

The property is inspected to identify signs of activity, likely nesting areas and possible access points.
Treatment
The most appropriate treatment is carried out based on the level of infestation and the specific circumstances of the property.
