Most rat problems we see in the area are roof rats. Roof rats are climbers. They travel along tree limbs, fences and lines and get into attics, soffits and the upper parts of walls. That’s why we start our inspection at the roofline. Norway rats, which stay closer to the ground, are much less common here.
Rats are most active after dark. Scurrying or gnawing sounds overhead or inside walls are a common first sign.
Look for small, dark droppings along walls, in the attic, garage or pantry, and dark rub marks where rats repeatedly squeeze through a gap.
Rats chew constantly. Chewed wiring, torn ductwork and flattened or tunneled insulation are common. See how rodents can cause electrical fires and the impact of rodents on HVAC systems.
We remove the rats with traps, seal every entry point we find, and clean up after them. That deals with the cause, not just the rats you have today. See snap traps vs. electronic traps and why mothballs don’t work.
