Rat Droppings & Scratching Noises

Rat droppings – rats defecate and produce droppings around 40 at night. These wastes are usually dark brown in Colour and resemble a large grain of rice

Scratching noises – think you could have rats on your roof? Black rats (also known as the roof rat) are agile climbers and can easily get access into loft spaces and upper floors of buildings. The hearing scratching noises at night from above may indicate their presence. Brown rats on the other hand, are less adept climbers. You may hear they scurry under decking, sheds and floorboards.

Rub Marks – rats leave these marks on dividers and sheets where they move in and out of the premises. This is because of the poor vision. The marks are made up of oil and dirt that stuck on their bodies. When they crawl, they leave smears and dull blemishes on things and surfaces that they run over and brush against. Seeing these imprints may indicate their presence.

Damages – rats have teeth that develop and grow over time. They have to chew on wood and plastic to keep them trim.
