Droppings: Rat droppings are a clear sign of an infestation. They are often found in dark, hidden areas such as attics, basements, or under sinks.
Nests: Rats often create nests out of materials like paper, insulation, and fabrics. These nests are usually hidden in warm areas of your home.
Noises: Rats are nocturnal and can make scratching, scurrying, or squeaking noises, especially in walls and ceilings.
Gnaw Marks: Rats have strong teeth that they use to gnaw on wood, wires, and other materials. This can lead to damage in your home or business.
Rats can cause a variety of problems if left unchecked:
Health Risks: Rats can spread diseases like leptospirosis, salmonella, and hantavirus. Their urine, droppings, and saliva can contaminate food and surfaces.
