Why Rats love to destroy your home
When you experience a pest infestation most likely, it will happen in the blink of an eye. As such, it’s understandable that people want a practical solution just as quickly. This is precisely what our team provides. As one of the top businesses for rat control Sheffield has to give, we are the people to call to tackle problems with rats.
In recent years there have been many enquiries from both the media and community members about surges in rat populations within homes. There have also been reports of the rodents chewing through our poly water piping. While there is an abundance of explanations for the increases, two principal ones stand out from the rest.
Why have Rats come Now?
The first reason has to do with seasonal shifts. Rats, as well as their mice counterparts, are active throughout the year, but it’s winter in particular that brings them to your houses. During autumn, food supplies begin to decline. As a result, they are more likely to look at properties for the food they need. The colder temperatures outside also make comfortable, sheltered homes more attractive.
The main reason there has been a significant increase in the number of rodents chewing through pipes is an alteration of their habitat. This also causes the rats to show up in bizarrely large groups. Extensive infrastructure work can displace lots of rats from their usual habitats, sending them into pipes and properties.
