Rat Control
Rodents
Rats cause significant issues for homeowners and businesses in South Wales, spreading diseases, causing damage to properties, and leading to sleepless nights. Eliminating rats can be challenging due to their neophobic behavior and established entry routes.
Rats are naturally neophobic, which means they fear and avoid new objects like traps and poison. If you've tried to get rid of rats yourself, you might have unintentionally enhanced their neophobia. Identifying rat entry routes often requires first-hand experience and an RSPH Level 2 qualification.
TNR Pest Solutions' team of rat control experts can eradicate long-term rat problems from your home or business in South Wales. We're one of the few companies that offer a guarantee on our riddance programs to ensure complete customer satisfaction.
Rat infestations can pose significant dangers when left unaddressed due to the presence of hazardous pathogens in rat urine, including Weil's disease, Salmonella, Listeria, Toxoplasma gondii, Hantavirus, and Rat bite fever. Structural damage is another concern, as rats constantly gnaw to keep their teeth in check, chewing through various materials, including electrical cables, leading to safety hazards.
Signs of a Rat Infestation
Identifying a rat problem is not always straightforward, but rats leave various telltale signs indicating their presence, including:
Rat droppings: Dark brown and roughly the size of a raisin.
Damaged food: Food wrappers or food in unusual places on your property.
Footprints: While footprints may go unnoticed by most, they serve as a clear indicator of rat activity to a trained eye.
Gnawing: Noticeable signs of gnawing, such as damage to cables or the base of doors.
Sightings: Whether inside or outside your property, seeing a black or brown rat is a definite red flag.
Noises: Rodents are likely the culprits if you are kept awake by scratching in your cavity walls during the early hours.
If you observe any of these signs, it's quite probable that you are dealing with a rat problem. Contact TNR Pest Solutions for professional rat pest control services in South Wales. We will gladly discuss our rat control solutions and provide a free, no-obligation quote.
