Pest Control Anston

There are actually two species of rat that you might spot in Anston, black rats and common (brown) rats. It's relatively unlikely that you'll ever see a black rat, and if you have stumbled upon a rat fairly recently chances are it will have been the more commonplace brown rat (Rattus Norvegicus). Black rats (or ship rats) were common at one time and were blamed for the Great Plague during the 17th Century, they are rather scarce now, although where they are found they are excellent climbers, have good hearing, and can produce between 20 and 100 baby rats each year.

Brown rats are larger than black rats (Rattus Rattus) and may weigh up to half a kilogram, with a length of approximately 9". The majority of the destruction caused by brown rats is because to keep their incisors from getting too much, they have to continually chew on things. Woodwork is particularly vulnerable to this gnawing.

Rats may cause lots of issues in businesses and homes throughout Anston and they gnaw through wires, pipes, insulation and woodwork, transmit disease, leave behind droppings, and generally cause a nuisance. Sightings of rats should always be reported to the local authority. Or perhaps click HERE to report pest and rat problems on the .gov website online.

It's not only by sight that you'll be alerted to the existence of rats, their habits are sometimes quite enough to give warning. It could be that you may hear noises coming from a floor, wall or loft, you could stumble upon a rat's nest hidden away somewhere, you might come across rat holes gnawed in floorboards or skirtings or you may start seeing droppings on floors or in cupboards.

Unless you wish to wait around for environmental health to manage your problem you could always bring in local Anston pest controller or rat catcher who will be experienced in the area of pest removal. There aren't too many individuals nowadays who only specialize in rat catching, you are also able to bring them in if you've got moles in your lawn or perhaps a wasps nest in your loft space.

What Attracts Mice and Rats?

With their twitchy whiskers, fur covered bodies and pointy faces, some people may find rats and mice to be quite cute, however they're definitely not the kind of animals that you want to be living in your house or garden in Anston, and can be more dangerous than you might suppose. Rats and mice are known to cause fires and other issues in homes and business premises in Anston by gnawing through plastic, insulation materials, electric wires and skirting boards. Between them mice and rats can spread more than thirty types of diseases including Weil's disease, toxoplasmosis, trichinosis, listeria, rat bite fever, bubonic plague, typhus, salmonella and tularemia. So, the principal things that attract mice and rats into your home or garden are:

• FOOD - Food that's left discarded or lying around is perhaps the main attraction for mice and rats.
• ENTRY POINTS AND HOLES - Rats and mice can crawl through the tiniest of holes, so watch out for gaps around crawl spaces, grills, doors and pipework.
• PET WASTE/COMPOST - Remarkably piles of compost and even pet waste can attract mice and rats - they will find a few tasty morsels hidden in there!
• WATER - Mice and rats have to drink, so water sources such as leaking pipes, pet bowls, seeping sprinkler systems and birdbaths are a big temptation for these unwanted pests.
• CLUTTER - General clutter in an attic, garden shed or basement will be particularly attractive to mice and rats, particularly if there's a food source nearby.
• TRASH/RUBBISH - An accumulation of junk and garden waste stacked up on your property (particularly in the garden) will clearly attract mice and rats.

Rat Burrows

One thing that all rats like to do is dig burrows, and the area that they most like to do it is at the side of solid objects or structures such as paths, terraces, garages and shed bases. They dig out substantial systems of burrows which provide them with shelter, food storage and nesting places. The entrances to rat burrows tend to be worn smooth by the constant motion, so keep an eye out for smooth sided holes next to solid structures. The burrow entrances are typically around two to four inches in diameter. Chuck some stuff into the burrow and look the following day to ascertain if it's been cleared. This will show if rats are still using it.

Diseases Spread by Rats

Rats have been found to disseminate a variety of diseases to humans, largely through the contact with their saliva, urine and faeces. Humans can be infected with diseases such as hantavirus, leptospirosis, salmonellosis and rat-bite fever through contact with rats.

Vomiting, fever and rashes can be caused by rat-bite fever, a bacterial infection that can be transmitted through a rat bite or scratch. Diarrhea, abdominal cramps and fever are all symptomatic of the bacterial infection salmonellosis. Hantavirus has the potential to cause a fatal respiratory illness. Liver and kidney failure are potential outcomes of leptospirosis, a bacterial infection that can also cause symptoms resembling the flu.

Preventing and controlling rat infestations is a crucial step in reducing the risk of disease transmission. Furthermore, food and water sources can become contaminated by rat droppings and urine, which can further increase the risk of disease transmission.

Having a rat problem in Anston is something that most of us dread, and when you find yourself in this scenario, you may have the urge to try to resolve it yourself. There are an array of products that are currently available to help you to achieve this and you will find rat poisons, rat traps and other similar products in supermarkets, shops and hardware stores in the Anston area. Nevertheless, unless you are aware of what you're at, it's probably better to appoint an experienced rat exterminator, who'll have handled this issue hundreds of times previously, and will know automatically what the perfect solution is. Because of the risks to pets and children, the newcomer's use of rat toxins is not generally encouraged, and it isn't always successful in any case. If you know what is best for you, always bring in a professional rat control service in Anston for a solution to your rat problems.
