Among the most unwanted house pests is the rat. This pest can cause a lot of damage to the home. They can be quite annoying and can potentially cause harm to people’s health. At the first indication of a rat living in the house, it is but normal for anyone to find a good way to remove them from the premises.

There are actions that the household can do to get rid of rats from the home. But if it has come to a point where the rat population is uncontrollable or if there seems to be a constant influx of rats, it is recommended that one calls a professional to take care of the problem.

Understanding Rat Habits

As with other pests that need to be controlled, the habits and feeding patterns of rats need to be understood first. The most common rodents that infest the house are Norway rats, roof rats and the house mouse.

Rats feed on anything that humans eat. Their nature is to take away the food they have found and bring it back to their nests. They normally roam around freely during the night, but there are times that they do roam around at day time looking for food to eat.

In Australia, the most damaging type of rat has to be the Norway rat, which can be seen in food warehouses, garbage dumps, food shops, grain storage facilities and sewers.

In the home, rats tend to chew on anything their teeth can handle, so doors and other parts of the house are not safe with rats around. They may also chew on upholstery, rags and even electrical wires.

To catch these agile rodents, it would be good to know that they normally use the same routes, so traps or stick pads can be set along those routes. You may also put traps near what may be their home base.
