The presence of rodents will be indicated by their droppings, gnaw marks and unaccountable disappearance of food.
As is the case with most household pests, prevention is better than cure. This can be achieved by keeping all food in rodent proof containers, placing rubbish and refuse in rodent proof bins, denying the rodents access to water and keeping yards free of rubbish and packing material that could provide nesting and harbourage areas.
Treatment:
There are many different methods of treating for rodents depending on the type of property and infestation.
• Rodent proofing – this involves physically stopping the rodents from entering the building and is usually a very involved process.
• Poisoning – there are many different methods of poisoning, the most common being the use of Brodifacoum, which is relatively non-hazardous to human beings. Should accidental poisoning of domestic pets occur, the antidote is readily available from any veterinary hospital.
• Trapping – often useful in situations where dead rodents may be difficult to remove. There are many different types of traps available.
