Signs You Have a Rat Infestation

Rats are masters of staying hidden. You may have an infestation for weeks or months before ever seeing one. It is crucial to identify the early warning signs before they can cause costly damage or spread disease.

• Scratching Noises: This is often the first sign. Rats are nocturnal, so you will likely hear scurrying, scratching, or gnawing sounds from your attic or walls after sunset.
• Droppings: Finding small, dark, pellet-shaped droppings in your pantry, under sinks, in drawers, or along baseboards is a clear indicator of activity.
• Gnaw Marks: Rats must chew constantly. Look for small, irregular gnaw marks on wood, drywall, plastic, or, most dangerously, electrical wiring. This damage is a serious fire hazard.
• Grease Marks: Rats use the same paths repeatedly. They leave dark, oily rub marks on walls and baseboards from the grease and dirt on their fur.
• Nests: Roof rats build nests in protected, elevated areas. You may find piles of shredded insulation, paper, or fabric in your attic, crawl space, or wall voids.

If you notice any of these signs, it is vital to act quickly. A rat problem can escalate rapidly, and the risks they pose to your property and health are too significant to ignore.

Why DIY Rat Control Fails

Store-bought rat traps and poisons are often ineffective against intelligent and persistent rodents like roof rats. These products can also be a significant danger to children, pets, and non-target wildlife, which is a major concern in our community.

A true rat infestation involves more than just the pests you see. Identifying and permanently sealing all entry points, which can be as small as a quarter, requires expert knowledge and specialized materials. Without this critical exclusion step, new rats will simply return.

Professionals are trained to handle the serious health risks associated with rats. They are equipped to manage contaminated areas safely, protecting your family from exposure to diseases like Salmonella and Leptospirosis during and after the removal process.
