Rodents Pest Guide

In Bundall Australia, there are three major species of rodents known:

• Norway rat – Rattus norvegicus – also called the brown rat, sewer rat and wharf rat
• Roof rat – rattus rattus – also called black rat and ship rat
• House mouse – mus musculus or mus domesticus

There are roughly 60 local species known in the country, and these locals, for instance, bush rats and different mice can frequently be found in the backyard.

Both are capable of contaminating food and water and make the environment filthy. Hence, even if you are confident your area is clean, there are some instances where they still hide especially in out of reach locations. The more that infestation is unidentified, the longer they’re a nuisance in our environment and much impose increased risk in health.

They are also capable of physical damage – as rodents gnaw constantly and by gnawing, they tend to trim their continuously growing teeth. They can gnaw on food containers, furniture and even electrical wires which could be susceptible to short circuits and fires.

If you are experiencing rodent infestation at home and your surroundings, it is best to call in the support of pest control experts.

Signs of Rodent Infestation

Suspecting your Bundall house is invaded with these creepy nuisance? Here are some signs you can search for:

Live or dead rodents – this is one of the significant signs, a sight of live rodent. If they are dead, you may place one unless the corpse emits strong odor that is nasty because it is decaying.

Rodent droppings – you can see them in most dark regions of your home and surroundings, specifically in the attic and basement. Sometimes, they conceal under the sink, flooring or even in certain closed furniture like cabinets and drawers. Fresh rodent droppings are black, shiny and glistening, while if it’s old enough, they are gray in colour, dusty and crumbling.

Tracks – rodent tracks are sometimes tough to distinguish but they can be easily found when you dust a few flour lightly over the floor or in places where you believe they’re crawling. You can easily detect it since footprints and tail marks are rather obvious.

Smear marks – these monitors are abandoned because there are hairs in it and bark smear marks are greasy and smelly. They can be found around entry points and indicate locations which you need to seal.

Gnaw marks – these marks are very simple to notice because it’s a sure indication they are sneaking in your houses. The gnaw marks are small and they’re obviously found on materials such as wood furniture or cardboard.

Noise – because most rodents are active at night, you can hear them running along above the ceiling or within your walls.

Urine and faecal odor and stains – rodent’s waste emit strong nasty odor, but for stains, they are able to rarely be observed with a naked eye except when you use UV lighting to locate them.
