According to the company, rats are the most destructive pests known to man. They are also a known source of numerous diseases that can afflict humans and domestic animals. The company says that, according to experts, following the closure of restaurants due to the pandemic, rats are seeking other food sources and finding their way into British homes. The company says that rodents sneak in under doors, through cracks, and even in drains.

The company says that one of the leading authorities on dealing with rodents said around half of the professionals it had polled during the lockdown, had seen an increase in pest activity. One firm, the company says, has seen a 50 percent increase in residential call-outs since social distancing measures were introduced. When the lockdown was first announced some people took to stockpiling food, fearing supermarkets would run out. A leading body recently warned of the dangers of doing so, fearing it could further encourage rats into residential properties.

The company says that rats in particular may be becoming more visible in areas of the population. Due to less footfall across cities and towns, there is less associated food waste being left in bins and on the floor. As a result, rat populations are likely to move further afield to satisfy their need for a food source and this, in turn, is likely to cause more sightings. By nature, rats will also try to avoid humans directly and so, with fewer people walking the streets, they may be getting a little bolder and possibly be seen in areas they normally wouldn’t.

The company says that homeowners can ensure that their homes are not vulnerable by managing their food waste properly and eliminating any considerable harbourage opportunities for the rodents. Those who are fond of gardening should avoid the storage of garden waste in piles around the garden as it can provide a perfect place for rats to live and breed. The company recommends that, in case of a rodent problem, people don’t try to sort it out themselves using their own poison. There is a chance that they might contract something. They recommend calling in an expert to deal with it.
