🐀 RATS EATING RATS! CANNIBALISM IN THE RAT WORLD! ⚠️

Here's something you don't see every day!

We caught a rat in one of our traps, but what happened next was fascinating! A much larger rat appeared, grabbed the dead rat and began dragging it back towards its nest, in order to make a meal of it! 🐀 I went back the next day to find just the head of the other rat! 🐀👹

DID YOU KNOW RATS CAN BE CANNIBALS? 😳

Rats are highly opportunistic feeders, and when food is available, very little goes to waste!

✅ Dead Rats: Rats will scavenge and eat other dead rats, particularly when food is scarce.

✅ Newborn Rats: Adult rats, including mothers, can sometimes eat newborn pups, particularly if they're stillborn, weak, injured or when the mother is under significant stress.

✅ Survival Instinct: Rats will take advantage of available food sources, including members of their own species.

✅ High Protein: A dead rat provides a potential source of protein and energy for another rat.

⚠️ This is a perfect example of just how adaptable rats are and the lengths they'll go to in order to survive.

When working in pest control, there's always something fascinating to witness when observing rodent behaviour!

🎥 Watch the video closely as the larger rat drags its unfortunate mate away!

🐀 RAT INFESTATION AT A RECYCLING PLANT! 🐀

Well, Zeus & Dexter certainly earned their breakfast this morning! 🐕💪

Called out to a recycling plant to tackle a serious rat infestation around the shredding area and the place was absolutely crawling with them!

With only a small window to get started, the dogs managed to clear around 30 rats from just ONE section! 😳

This is only the beginning! We'll be returning over the next few weeks to continue working the dogs and get behind the thermal scope for some evening control.

🎯 Plenty more work to be done on this one!

🐀 ONLY 5 CHICKENS… BUT A BIG RAT PROBLEM! 🐔

You don’t need a huge flock to attract rats. This smallholding had just five chickens, yet a rat infestation had taken hold.

Spilt feed, a regular water supply and shelter around the coop can give rats everything they need — even with only a handful of birds.

✅ Store feed in secure, rodent-resistant containers
✅ Clear up spilled grain and leftover scraps
✅ Check around sheds and coops for burrows and droppings
✅ Act early when you spot signs of rats

Effective control means tackling what’s attracting them as well as the rats themselves.

🐀 HOW EFFECTIVE IS THE BLACK CAT TRAP? 🐀

When it comes to rodent control, choosing the right equipment can make all the difference!
The Black Cat trap is a powerful tool in a professional pest controller’s arsenal, offering several benefits when used correctly as part of an integrated pest management (IPM) programme.

🔴 THE BENEFITS

✅ Quick action – A mechanical trap designed to kill rodents rapidly when correctly installed and functioning as intended.
✅ Reusable design – Can be reset and reused, making it a practical option for ongoing rodent monitoring and control.
✅ Targeted control – Helps tackle rodent activity in specific locations where signs of infestation have been identified.
✅ No rodenticide required – Provides a non-chemical control option, reducing reliance on anticoagulant rodenticides when trapping is suitable.
✅ Useful in confined spaces – Can be particularly useful in suitable locations where rodent activity is concentrated, provided the trap can be safely positioned.

⚠️ BUT CORRECT PLACEMENT IS KEY

No trap is a magic solution. Effectiveness depends on the level of rodent activity, correct positioning, suitable installation, regular inspection and addressing the reasons rodents are gaining access in the first place.
Professional pest control isn't just about catching rodents. It's about understanding their behaviour, identifying entry points, removing attractants and preventing the problem from returning.

🐀 THE BOTTOM LINE:
The Black Cat trap can be a valuable part of an effective rodent control strategy when selected and used appropriately.

🐀 PEST ACTIVITY – WHAT SHOULD YOU LOOK OUT FOR?

As the weather turns colder, rats and mice can move indoors in search of food and shelter. Other pests, including bed bugs and fleas, can remain a problem in heated properties throughout the year.

Here are some signs to watch for 👇

🐀 RATS & MICE
Droppings, scratching noises, gnaw marks and damaged food packaging can indicate activity. Check around pipework, air bricks and drains for possible entry points.

🐝 WASPS
Mainly a warmer-month problem, with colony activity declining as temperatures fall. Wasps don’t normally reuse old nests, although new nests can appear nearby in future seasons.

🛏️ BED BUGS
Look for dark spotting on mattress seams, shed skins and live insects around bed frames and headboards. Bites alone cannot confirm bed bugs, and infestations can happen in clean homes too.

🐾 FLEAS
Pets scratching more than usual or small jumping insects around carpets and pet bedding can be warning signs. Effective control needs to address both affected animals and their surroundings.

🏠 HELP PROTECT YOUR PROPERTY:
✅ Keep food and animal feed in secure containers.
✅ Keep bins closed and clear up spillages.
✅ Reduce clutter that provides hiding places.
✅ Check for gaps and damaged vents or drainage.
✅ Investigate early signs before the problem grows.

At TTOCS Pest Control Ltd, we help homeowners, businesses and farms identify pest problems, tackle the cause and reduce the risk of them returning.
