🐀 You're never more than 6 feet away from a rat… Or are you?
It's a saying we've all heard, but is there actually any truth behind it?
The answer is no! There's no scientific evidence to suggest we're constantly within 6 feet of a rat.
However, that doesn't mean they're not closer than we'd like!
As temperatures drop, rats look for food and shelter, and homes, gardens and commercial premises can provide exactly that.
If you've noticed droppings, scratching noises or signs of gnawing around your property, it could be time to investigate.
At Venables Pest Control, we help homeowners and businesses across Gloucestershire deal with unwanted rodents safely and effectively.
