Why Choose Us?
Signs You Might Have a Rat Problem
Rats are notoriously good at hiding, but they often leave tell-tale signs of their presence. Being able to spot these can help you act quickly before a small problem becomes a large infestation. Look out for droppings – small, dark, and pellet-like, often found along skirting boards or in cupboards. You might hear scratching, gnawing, or scurrying noises, especially at night, from within walls, lofts, or under floorboards. Gnaw marks on wood, wires, or food packaging are another clear sign, as are distinctive greasy smudge marks along walls or pipes where rats frequently travel. If you notice any of these indicators, it’s time to call in the professionals.

Who We Are
Why Professional Rat Control is Essential
While DIY traps or poisons might seem like an easy fix, they rarely provide a long-term solution. Rats are intelligent and can become bait-shy, avoiding amateur attempts. More importantly, using rodenticides incorrectly can be dangerous to pets, children, and non-target wildlife. Our RSPH Level 2 qualified technicians at Moorlander Pest Control are professionally trained to assess the unique challenges of your property. We have access to professional-grade rodenticides and traps that are far more effective and precisely targeted than anything available to the public. Our expertise means we identify ingress points, harborage areas, and tailor a comprehensive strategy to eliminate the problem at its source, not just treat the symptoms.

01822 668338Our Responsible & Thorough Rat Elimination Process
At Moorlander Pest Control, our approach to rat control is built on 20 years of practical experience and a deep commitment to responsible practices. As proud subscribers to the CRRU (Campaign for Responsible Rodenticide Use) code of practice, we ensure all rodenticide use is ethical, targeted, and minimises risk to the environment and other animals. Your safety, and that of your pets and the local wildlife, is our priority. Our process always begins with a thorough site inspection to understand the extent of the infestation and identify how rats are getting in. We then implement a tailored plan using secure, tamper-resistant bait stations and strategic trapping where appropriate. We don't just lay bait; we monitor activity and adapt our methods to ensure complete eradication.

01822 668338Beyond Eradication: Rat Proofing for Long-Term Protection
Getting rid of rats is only half the battle; preventing their return is crucial for lasting protection. Once we’ve eliminated the current rat population, our service includes expert advice and implementation of vital proofing works. This involves identifying and sealing potential entry points – such as gaps around pipes, unsealed vents, or damaged drains. Our specialist qualifications, including Rodent Control for Drains, mean we can even conduct sewer surveys if we suspect an underground entry point. This comprehensive approach protects your home or business from future infestations, saving you potential costs and stress down the line.
