Rats can cause serious damage and spread disease, and they can breed quickly once they have a food source and shelter. Arrochar Pest Control provides professional rat control for homes, farms, businesses and commercial premises throughout Argyll & Bute, with a fast response and safe, professional treatment.
Signs of rats
- Droppings in kitchens, lofts, garages, sheds or around feed stores
- Gnaw marks on food packaging, wood, pipes or wiring
- Scratching or scurrying noises in walls, ceilings or under floors
- Grease marks along walls and skirting boards
Why rats are a problem
Rats can contaminate food and surfaces, damage insulation and electrical wiring, and cause a fire risk. Their numbers can grow quickly, so a small problem can soon become a large one.
How we control rats
We inspect the property to find where the rats are active and how they are getting in. We then carry out safe, professional treatment and advise on the steps needed to stop them returning. Proofing advice is included with every job.
Keeping rats out
- Store food in sealed containers and clear up spills promptly
- Use bins with tight lids, placed away from the building
- Keep clutter, feed and garden debris away from walls
- Seal gaps around pipes, cables and air bricks
