If you spot any of the below, it is time to call your local pest control Glasgow professionals.

Rat Droppings

Brown rats, the most common in the UK, produce droppings that are cylindrical in shape and around 15mm in diameter,

Gnaw marks on walls and furniture

Small tooth marks on skirting boards, the legs of chairs and tables, or on food packaging is one of the clearest indications that either a rat or mouse has been active in the area.

Smears of dirt

Brown rats will often find their way around Glasgow properties by rubbing themselves along walls and skirting boards due to their poor eyesight. Look for stains and streaks in these areas.

Sound

Sounds of scratching, scuttling, or gnawing from inside your walls or from the attic may be an indication of a rat problem. It could also easily by grey squirrels or mice, however, and a professional will be required to investigate further.

Physical Sightings of rats

If you have physically seen a rat inside your property, there is a high chance of a significant nearby rat infestation and you should call a professional pest control expert immediately.

Rats tend to hide away during the day so if one is out and about in daylight, it is a sign that the population is already significant and a nest is close at hand.

 

Rat Species in Glasgow

If you have spotted a rat in Glasgow, it is highly likely that it is a Brown Rat (Rattus Norvegicus).

This is the species that causes the vast majority of rodent issues in the UK, with rare instances involving other species such as Black rats normally occurring close to coastal towns and ports having been brought in on cargo ships from overseas.
