Common signs of a rat infestation
Rats are often active at night, so early signs can be subtle. Look out for:
- Scratching or scurrying noises in walls, lofts or under floors
- Dark, rice-shaped droppings around cupboards, bins or worktops
- Gnaw marks on wiring, timber or food packaging
- Greasy smear marks along skirting boards and walls
- A strong musky odour from nesting areas
Our rat control process
- Property inspection: We map entry points, nests and activity areas.
- Targeted treatment: Professional traps, bait stations and safe baiting strategy.
- Proofing: Seal and secure identified access points to stop re-entry.
- Follow-up: Rechecks and monitoring until the site is clear.
- Prevention advice: Practical steps to keep rats away long term.
How to prevent rats returning
- Store food in sealed containers and secure bins with tight lids
- Clear garden clutter and trim vegetation away from walls
- Seal gaps around pipes, vents and doorways
- Repair broken drains and block potential entry points
- Keep lofts and storage tidy so pests have fewer nesting spots
