Rat Control Information and Advice From Pest Control Products UK
Common rat, Rattus Norvegicus (Norway, sewer or brown rat)
The common rat has only been recorded in Britain since early in the 18th Century. It is thought to have been introduced in shipping from Russia. It is now by far the more abundant of the two rat species and is widely distributed in both urban and rural areas. It occurs both indoors, and outdoors away from human habitation, and is the species often associated with sewer systems.
Ship rat, Rattus rattus (roof or black rat)
The ship rat probably originated in south-east Asia and was thought not to have reached western Europe until the Middle Ages. Although once the dominant rat species in this country, the ship rat is now rare and confined mainly to port areas. It may, however, occasionally be found in some inland towns, especially those linked to ports by canals, and its range probably continues to contract. In Britain it lives only indoors.
1. Baiting
The pestcontrolproducts range includes poisons identical to the ones used by professional pest controllers. These products are designed to be highly attractive to rodents specifically, but care should always be taken to place baits where they cannot be accessed by pets or children. The result of many years of research and development, they do not result in an instant kill, but their effects ensure that the rat is as dehydrated as possible, to minimise any smell caused by the cadaver.
An all-natural alternative rodent bait is Eradirat, which contains absolutely no toxic ingredients, and as such eliminates the risk of poisoning predators which may feed on rats, such as birds of prey. This method also causes extreme dehydration to the rodents, leading them to retreat to their burrows, where they lapse into a coma and die.
