ROOF RAT

Originally from East Asia, the roof rat has spread to every corner of the world. It has the quickest breeding cycle of all the rats, is an adept climber, and will eat just about anything. The heat of summer does not slow them down, and can actually speed up their breeding cycle. They are around 15 inches long and sleek in appearance, with a tail that is longer than their body. In the valley, they are found just about everywhere. Communities with large amounts of citrus trees, and vegetation in general, are the most prone to having an infestation. As their name implies, they are likely to be found in the attic. Gnawed electrical wires, droppings, and loud rustling sounds are good indications that you have one or two in the house. Because they multiply so quickly, it is important to deal with them right away. Make sure they don’t get near your Air Conditioning unit. Within a matter of months two roof rats can become ten, and things only get worse from there. Over time, this rat’s presence in the home will lead to unsanitary and unsafe conditions in the attic, in addition to causing electrical shorts caused by wiring chewed all the way through.

Trapping for rats can be tricky, to say the least. They are wary of new things, such as snap traps, in their environment, and can detect the smallest traces of poison.
