How To Examine Your House For Rat Entry Points

Pests need very little space to slip through holes and this is often an unknown fact that gets ignored a lot. Sealing up these holes will prevent any incoming pests from gaining entry.  This again comes down to an abundance of food, water, and shelter.

If you have a rat infestation, do not hesitate to contact the licensed and insured exterminators from Rat Control Guelph.

There are ways to prevent rats from being attracted to your property. This includes, but is not limited to locking your garbage bins, not leaving your pet food outside, and fixing leaky pipes where water comes through. This will minimize the chances but will not entirely stop the rats in their tracks to find out what they can get their hands on inside especially during the colder months.

The best way to look for entry points in your house Is to do a detailed inspection by yourself, you must understand what the rat is capable of and where they like to stay if they get through these entry points. Common rat entry points are foundation gaps at the side of the base of your house, utility line gaps, and pipes that will lead to the basement and the crawl space area, and they can even have burrows right in your backyard. Now you can look for these entry points around the house and maybe identify them! Rats are very sneaky rodents, so chances are that they will stay away. For guaranteed help, contact the rat control experts from Rat Control! Our technicians are licensed and insured to look and identify rat presence and entry points so they can be sealed after thorough extermination.

It all has to do with the abundance of food, water, and shelter in that neighborhood. When rats have access to these things, that will give them no reason to move out. They will start a colony and will breed rapidly. In most cases, you will not notice the infestation until a few years down the line. Rats are very sneaky and cautious rodents who will avoid any possible human interaction possible.
