FREE INSPECTIONS CONNECTICUT RAT CONTROL $50 OFF RAT CONTROL REDEEM OFFER Fox Pest Control’s Connecticut Rat Exterminator Service Rats are large, disease carrying rodents, and you do not want them in your home. Particularly if you have pets or children, a rat infestation can be dangerous. They will come into your home and destroy practically everything, and touching a dead rat or rat droppings can be enough to transfer diseases to pets and children. In the warmth and safety of your Connecticut home, rats can live up to three years, and with the average female rat giving birth to 8-10 babies at a time, your home can be overrun quickly. Fox Pest Control is here to fight your rodent problems for you. If you have a rat infestation, call today to receive prompt service and removal. Signs of a Rat Infestation You might already know for sure that you have a rat problem. But here are a couple of the most common signs of a rat infestation in Connecticut. Droppings The first sign of a rat infestation in your Connecticut home is their droppings. Larger than mouse droppings, Norway rat droppings are dark and cylindrical. Rats will usually find specific, hidden places to urinate and leave their droppings. Gnaw marks Because their teeth never stop growing, rats can chew through electrical wires, solid wood, hard plastic, and even metal, especially if there are large numbers of them in an area. Noises Rats may fight one another at night over food, territory, nesting material, or dominance. They might make scurrying noises or squeals. Destroyed food Always on the lookout for food, rats will chew through food storage containers or even solid wood to find food. Some rats may steal chicken eggs from coops or food from vegetable gardens. What You Need to Know About Rats Rats in Connecticut carry diseases like hantavirus, the plague, Lyme disease and Rocky Mountain Spotted Fever Adult rats are bigger than adult mice, but young rats may be similar in size to young mice. A rat has “pointier”, less-rounded ears and a hairless tail, while mice have fine hairs along the length of their tails. You can identify a rat by its droppings. Rat feces are usually cylindrical or banana shaped and quite large — relatively speaking. Since they’re intelligent creatures, they tend to take care of business in the same spot every time. Even more telling than the feces may be the bite marks in walls or food containers. Helpful Rat Prevention Tips: Seal common entry points. Reduce food and water access. Reduce hiding places in the kitchen and yard. Clean up debris and trim bushes so they don’t come in contact with your home. How Do I Get Rid Of Rats? Call Us Think you have a rat problem?

I scheduled a next day service and that's when I met Matt. He was very knowledgeable and thorough at the time of his visit here. Explained everything he would be doing, he sprayed the outside perimeters where it was most problematic. And cleaned off a lot of the spider webs that was in the corners of my garage. He went around the house maybe 4-5 times to make sure all areas where completely treated. I felt taken care of. I would recommend. Robin Um Had great experience with Tom and John when came over to service my property today, both was very friendly and has lots of knowledge and answer all my questions.
