Rats & Mice

 

Why they’re a problem

  • Damage buildings, wiring & stored goods

  • Contaminate food & spread 20+ harmful diseases

  • Breed extremely fast: a single pair can lead to hundreds in months

Common signs to look out for

  • Droppings: Small black rice-like pellets (mice) or thicker capsule-shaped droppings (rats), often found in food areas, cupboards, or along walls

  • Scratching noises: Especially at night inside ceilings, under floors, and in walls

  • Gnaw marks: Chewing on electrical cables, doors, plastic containers & food packaging (a major fire risk)

  • Tracks and greasy smear marks: Dark oily trails along run routes where they repeatedly travel

  • Burrows or nesting materials: Shredded paper, insulation, or fabrics hidden in quiet corners or roof spaces

  • Strong ammonia smell: Mostly from urine in enclosed or rarely accessed areas

  • Pet behaviour changes: Dogs or cats suddenly focused on a particular wall or cupboard

How they get in

  • Gaps as small as 6–12 mm

  • Open drains, roof spaces, broken vents, and pipe openings
