So that you can go back to enjoying a rat-free home, we've spoke to the experts and asked them to share their best advice. Maybe not immediately, but after a while of being violently sick from secondary poisoning, the predator will be weak and vulnerable and likely to come under attack itself. Their numbers have exploded to around 70 million in the UK and with many councils now charging households for pest control, you will want to avoid rats ever becoming a problem.

They will eat almost anything available, but they do prefer to eat small amounts of a variety of different foods. Spray the mouse repellent anywhere you’ve detected activity or in any areas where there may be entry points into your house. Glue traps are also an option to trap rats, although many people consider them an inhumane option, since they kill rats via starvation.Anticoagulants causes internal bleeding and it takes a few days for the rat to finally die from shock.

Rats have the ability to compress their bodies allowing them to squeeze through impossibly small creative holes. One clever way to lure a rat into a trap is to cut a hole in the side of a shoebox and position it in the rat’s “presumed path to the bait trap” directly. When poison is consumed by a rat, it is likely that it will die in a cavity or roof space from which a bad smell can emit. Robert recommends to 'mix together some ammonia with water in a bowl and then place this bowl outside close to the rat’s habitat.Cage traps more often than not, use a bait and a pressure sensitive pad that springs the cage door close immediately a rat steps on the pad.

Your efforts to get rid of each of these house pests will be most successful when you understand their behavior, food preferences, and habitats. Rats are cautious creatures and, as such, prefer to travel along the edge of walls, so place your trap flat on the floor against a wall where you know there has been rodent activity. You may spot their tunnels (6-9cm in diameter) or their ‘runs’ – tracks alongside walls, fences or buildings that are up to 10cm wide. You should also check under the kick plates in the kitchen forratdroppings and clear out any food debris.As soon as a rat makes it into the house, the edible poison attracts the rat’s nose and taste buds and forces it to eat. For any rat infestation, we would always recommend contacting a professional pest management company, a member of BPCA. Eliminate any gaps around pipes and under sheds, as rats only need a gap of 15mm to gain entry to a structure. Drowning any animal is considered inhumane and with some animal species, the act is highly illegal and could see you facing criminal charges.
