Why Rats Are a Serious Problem
Rats are more than just an unpleasant nuisance — they can pose serious risks to health and property.
Health Risks
Rats can spread diseases such as:
Leptospirosis (Weil’s disease)
Salmonella
Hantavirus
These diseases can spread through rat droppings, urine, or contaminated surfaces.
Property Damage
Rats constantly gnaw to keep their teeth short. This behaviour can cause damage including:
Chewed electrical wiring (fire risk)
Structural damage to insulation and wood
Contaminated food supplies
Early treatment prevents infestations from becoming larger and more costly.
