Potton Rat Catchers and Pest Experts

Potton Rat Catchers (SG19): Spotting a rat in your garden or even inside your house could be quite an unsettling thing to go through and whilst its not such a common occurrence in Potton these days, its certainly not unheard of. Rats tend to breed rather quickly and can cause problems, especially when they are present in numbers. Just one incidence of a solitary rat probably won't be that much of a worry, however if you are seeing them on a regular basis it is best to take action.

Pest Control Quotes

There are actually two types of rat which you might come across in Potton, brown (or common) rats and black rats. It's relatively unlikely that you'll ever see a black rat, and if you have spotted a rat just recently chances are it will have been one of the more commonplace brown rats (Rattus Norvegicus). Black rats (also known as ship rats) were once common and were responsible for the Great Plague during the 17th Century, they are rather scarce nowadays, however where they do exist they are exceptional climbers, have good hearing, and can produce between twenty and one hundred offspring every twelve months.

Rat Catchers Potton Bedfordshire SG19

The biggest of the 2 rat varieties is the common brown at approximately 9", whilst the black rat (Rattus Rattus) only grows to between 5 and 7 inches. To wear down their continually growing incisor teetn, common brown rats must keep chewing things, which is the reason they are responsible for such a lot of damage. Their attention is oftentimes focused on objects made out of wood.

Rats can cause a number of issues in homes and businesses around Potton and they transmit disease, gnaw their way through insulation, wires, woodwork and pipes, leave droppings, and generally cause a nuisance. Home owners need to report sightings of rats to the relevant local authorities. Or alternatively head HERE to report pest problems and rat sightings on the .gov dedicated webpage.

You can either get in touch with your local authorities or call in a specialist Potton pest controller or rat catcher for yourself. In these modern times rat catchers normally fall into the category of pest control, and pest control experts do not only deal with rats but in addition mice, fleas, cockroaches, moles, wasps, bedbugs and all sorts of household and garden pests.

What Attracts Mice and Rats?

In spite of their outwardly cute appearance, with their pointy faces, furry bodies and twitchy whiskers, mice and rats can be dangerous and are definitely not animals that you want to be living in your house or garden in Potton. Mice and rats can sometimes cause fires and other problems around the home by nibbling through electric wires, skirting boards, plastic and plasterboard. Between them rats and mice can spread more than thirty forms of diseases including conditions like tularemia, typhus, listeria, salmonella, rat bite fever, bubonic plague, trichinosis, Weil's disease and toxoplasmosis. Among the different things that will attract rats and mice to your home and garden are:

  • PET WASTE/COMPOST - Surprisingly pet waste and even heaps of compost can be attractive to rodents - there are some tasty morsels hiding in there!
  • WATER - Mice and rats have to drink like any other creature, which means that sources of water like pet bowls, seeping sprinkler systems, birdbaths and leaking pipes are a big temptation for these unwanted pests.
  • HOLES AND ENTRY POINTS - Mice and rats can crawl through the smallest of holes and cracks, so keep an eye out for spaces around air vents, crawl spaces, piping and doorways.
  • CLUTTER - General clutter in an outbuilding, basement or loft space will be especially attractive to mice and rats, particularly if there's a source of food close by.
  • RUBBISH/TRASH - An accumulation of garbage and garden waste heaped up on your property (particularly in the garden) will clearly attract mice and rats.
  • FOOD - Food that is left lying around or discarded is perhaps the main attraction for rats and mice.

Rat Sightings - Reporting

We are going to go into a little more detail now, even though this subject was discussed previously. It is always a great idea to inform the Environmental Health if you see rats in a public space, in a neighbours garden or in your own garden. Most local councils will sort out rats free of charge, but if you have other infestations such as wasps, cockroaches and bed bugs they will usually charge. You can head over to the Government (.gov) website HERE to report rats. Click HERE to arrange your own rat catcher and get the problem resolved immediately.

Ultrasonic Pest Control

Ultrasonic pest control is the practice of repelling and deterring pests such as mice, insects, rats, and other critters using high-frequency sound waves. The technology's mechanism is to emit sound waves that are above the human hearing range but within the audible range of pests. Creating a disorienting and uncomfortable ambiance for pests, the waves hinder their ability to navigate and communicate with each other.

Even though ultrasonic pest control products are easy to use and reasonably priced, their effectiveness is subject to dispute. The effectiveness of these devices in repelling pests is uncertain, with some studies indicating success for specific pests while others showing little if any impact. The effectiveness of ultrasonic pest control can vary depending on the area size, pest type, and other environmental factors. It is essential to weigh all options and seek the advice of a professional before choosing a pest control strategy, as with any other process.... READ MORE.
