Wilton Rat Catchers (SP2): Noticing a rat in your home or garden tends to be rather an unsettling thing to go through although it isn't so frequent an occurrence in Wilton these days, it is definitely something that does happen. Rats breed rather quickly and will likely cause issues, especially when their numbers get out of control. One sighting of a solitary rat won't be too much of an issue, however if you happen to be noticing them often you should do something.

Pest Control Quotes

There are two sorts of rat that you may come across in Wilton, brown (common) rats and black rats. It's rather unlikely that you'll ever come across black rats, and if you have spotted a rat fairly recently the chances are it'll have been one of the more commonplace brown rats (Rattus Norvegicus). Black rats (or ship rats) were common at one time and were blamed for the Great Plague, they're quite rare now, though where they are found they are exceptional climbers, have good hearing, and the females can give birth to between twenty and one hundred offspring every twelve months.

Rat Catchers Wilton SP2

Brown rats are normally bigger than black rats (Rattus Rattus) and may weigh nearly 500g, with a length of roughly 9". Most of the damage caused by brown rats is down to the fact that to keep their teeth from getting too long, they have to constantly gnaw things. Items made of timber are especially prone to this interest.

Rats may cause a number of issues in businesses and homes around Wilton and they gnaw through woodwork, wires, pipes and insulation, transmit disease, leave droppings, and generally cause a nuisance. Home owners should report incidences of rats to the local authority. It's also possible to report rat sightings on the .gov web page HERE.

Pest Control in Wilton

It isn't invariably by sight alone that you will be alerted to the existence of rats, their habits are oftentimes quite enough to enlighten you. Perhaps you might start seeing droppings on floor surfaces or in cupboards, you could hear scratching noises coming from a floor, wall or loft, you might spot distinctive rat holes gnawed in skirtings or floorboards or you could come upon a rat's nest in some tucked away location.

If you are going to have this problem remedied effectively you might want to contact a professional. You can get in touch with the local environmental health department or bring in a professional Wilton rat catcher or pest controller yourself. These days rat catchers normally come under the category of pest management, and pest control providers not only remove rats but also cockroaches, moles, wasps, mice, bedbugs, fleas and many other kinds of garden and domestic pests.

Rat Bites

Although, in the UK, rat bites are not all that commonplace, they certainly do occur every so often, and the consequences can be serious in some scenarios. When rats are cornered or feel scared, they can attack and bite people, so should you unfortunately find yourself in that situation, keep out of the way and leave an easy and clear exit route.

Rat bites occasionally occur in properties where rats are being kept as pets, and ramming your hand in a rat's cage is definitely a manoeuvre you should avoid. Although they are not always serious, rat bites can become infected or be life threatening if they develop into "rat bite fever" (caused by Streptobacillus moniliformis), so they must be avoided wherever possible. "Rat bite fever" (RBF) has a 10% mortality rate, if it is left untreated.

Symptoms of Rat Bite Fever - The signs and symptoms of "rat bite fever" can include:

  • Vomiting
  • Muscle Pain
  • Rashes
  • Headaches
  • Fever
  • Swelling or Redness
  • Joint Pain

In the unlikely circumstance that you ever get a rat bite, you will have to bathe the wounded area, administer a coating of antibiotic ointment, and wrap it with a clean, sterile bandage or gauze. Even if the bite does not seem that serious, you should book an emergency appointment with your GP or head to the closest A&E. It's also wise to get a tetanus shot, particularly if you have not received one in the last five years.

Rat Sightings - Reporting

The following is a bit more detail on a subject we brought up further up the page. It is always a wise idea to inform the local authority Environmental Health Department if you notice rats in a public area, in a neighbours garden or in your own garden. In the case of rats this is occasionally a free service, even though you will usually be required to pay for other infestations for example wasps, bed bugs and cockroaches. It is also very easy to report rats via the .gov webpage which you can visit HERE. To get the issue sorted out speedily contact a rat catcher HERE.

Rats - How to Spot Them

There are a few ways that you can tell when you have rats. If you've got your suspicions that there may be rats in your home or business you can listen closely for scratching noises coming from roofs and walls, in particular during the night, search for tail trails or footprints in dusty areas or on loose soil, watch out for rub marks on walls and skirting boards where greasy fur has left marks, check for gnaw marks in wires, wood and cables, especially in attics, look out for burrows or tunnels next to solid surfaces, keep your eyes peeled for faeces (droppings), they look much like large grains of rice and are darkish brown.

Rat Prevention Wilton

The most effective way of avoiding problems with rodents is not to encourage them from the outset. For this reason, even though you don't actually have a rat problem, rat prevention must be high on your priority list. Household rubbish littered around your garden is amongst the primary factors behind rat and rodent infestations. Supplying both the materials and location to build a nest will only attract them. Furthermore, avoid giving them easy foodstuffs by leaving scraps of food lying around and putting out bird seed feeders with grain that will just attract them.
