We have had a huge increase in calls from clients that have heard noises in the roof thinking they may have Possums, in most cases it turns out to be Rats, Ratus Ratus (the Roof Rat or Bush Rat) or the imported larger Ratus Norvegicus (the Water Rat or Sewer Rat)….
Both will nest in your roof space or anywhere they can get warmth this time of year, they might even get into your living areas looking for food or water.
They transmit disease, they breed like mad and their urine and faeces leave Staines in your ceiling and smell terrible. Rats have to gnaw to keep their incisor teeth short, and will gnaw on your timber, concrete, bricks, water pipes and electrical cables which can cause thousands of dollars in water damage or fire damage.
If you hear noises at night you may not have lost your mind, you may have a rodent issue up in the roof.
Give us a call, it costs nothing for us to come and have a look, quotes and advice are free from obligation or cost.
Tell your rodents to nick off. If they come back, so do we.
