RODENT CONTROL - Gold Coast
Our homes are an ideal environment for rats and mice as they provide warmth, shelter, food and water.
Rodents may…
- Spread disease to their human landlords via their urine or droppings.
- Spread sickness via parasites such as fleas and intestinal worms.
- Cause extensive physical damage to doors, wiring, and ducting.
SIGNS OF POSSIBLE RODENT ACTIVITY MAY INCLUDE
Droppings: New rodent droppings are shiny and pliable and within 2-3 days become dull and hard. Mouse droppings are 3-6mm long and have pointed ends. Rat droppings are up to 12mm long and can have blunted ends.
Rubmarks: These are greasy smear marks and they are caused when rodents rub their fur against vertical surfaces such as walls
Sounds: Rats and Mice are normally heard at night and they include squeaking in the case of mice and clawing and gnawing in the case of rats.
Nest: A rodent nest is usually made of rags and paper and cardboard.
Gnawing: Rats gnaw to keep their incisors down and use wood, metal, conduit and cables in order to do this. When rats gnaw cables for instance this can expose bare wires and cause short circuits or fires.
Burrows: Rat burrows are normally found next to waterways and buildings.
