Rats

First signs of a rat infestation other than sightings of the rodent by your self can consist of:

Droppings

These tend to be found in specific locations rather than scattered all over the area.

Property damage

This can consist of bins being chewed, doors, plasterboard and plastic piping being gnawed creating rat holes and in cases entry points into properties. Other forms of gnawing can even be to electrical cabling creating a fire hazard and the cost of an electrician to rewire the house.

Rat FAQs

Frequently Asked Questions

How do GOLD pest control eradicate a mouse problem without using toxic chemicals?

At GOLD pest control we spend our time doing the things that really make a difference, such as proofing. We block all visible holes and gaps that may be allowing the rodents easy access. By using the right materials you can deny the rodents future access. Where the mice are inside the house we use snap traps and peanut butter to remove the infestation, without poisons being needed or used.

How do you eradicate a Moth (textile pest) problem without using toxic chemicals?

At GOLD pest control we treat textile pest problems using completely non-toxic solutions – by using a deep vacuum, dry steam at 180 degrees, plant based products and non-toxic powders. You are not required to leave the house throughout the duration of this treatment.

How do you control rats without poisons?

Rats are always linked to drainage and it is very important to find the route cause of an infestation as opposed to only temporarily fixing the problem. We look in depth at the drain system for damage or missing non return valves. Concentrate on proofing deep cleans and good house keeping. These things together will tackle any rat infestation. If rats are present in the effected area we will conduct trapping riddance programme to knock down the population before proofing is carried out.
