***NEW Rat Control page for Swords***
Are you looking for Rat Control in the Swords area?
We get high demand from this area and asked a number of questions so we have created a new Rat control page for Swords
https://houseandhomepestcontrol.ie/rat-control-swords/
On the page, James shows the routes rats can take to enter your Swords property.
Rats are clever creatures, and if there is a gap, they will exploit it
Once in they breed very quickly, so you must act fast
What are the signs of rats
Droppings
Rat pellets are about half an inch in length, normally found near food sources.

Scratching sounds inside walls and attics.
Gnaw Incisions
Bite marks on cables, plastics and furniture.
Nest and Burrows
Shredded fabric, holes and tunnels near back doors and garden sheds.
Foul-smelling odours
Strong, foul smell from rat urine.
If you have any of these signs, contact James on 083 010 2411
We have shared this information with a number of Swords Facebook groups, but if you know of other areas that are suffering rat infestations, we would be grateful if you could reshare
