Spotting the Signs: Is It Rats in Your Topsham Property?
Rats are nocturnal and incredibly discreet, so you might not see them directly. However, they always leave tell-tale signs. If you’re hearing scratching or scurrying noises in your loft, walls, or under floorboards, especially at night, this is often the first clue. Other common indicators include distinctive droppings (dark, pellet-shaped, around 1-2cm long), gnaw marks on wood, plastic, or wires, and greasy rub marks along skirting boards or walls where they regularly travel. You might also notice an unusual, ammonia-like smell. Don't ignore these signs; prompt action is crucial to prevent a small problem from becoming a major infestation.

01822 668338A Thorough Process for Long-Term Rat Protection
Our comprehensive rat control service in Topsham begins with a detailed, on-site survey. Our experienced technicians will meticulously inspect your property to identify the extent of the infestation, locate entry points (also known as ingress points), and pinpoint potential food and water sources. We then devise a tailored treatment plan using a combination of secure, tamper-resistant bait stations with professional-grade rodenticides and strategic trapping where appropriate. Critically, we don't finish there. We provide expert advice and can carry out essential proofing works – sealing up holes, repairing damaged vents, and blocking access points – to prevent rats from returning. For complex issues, we can even conduct specialist sewer surveys to identify underground entry points.
