Drainage Issues Can Be Caused by Rats
If rats get into your home or business premises they pose a significant threat; not only to the health of the occupants but also to the structure of the building itself. Rats are carriers of a wide range of unpleasant diseases which they can pass on to humans generally through their urine. Weil’s disease is possibly the one most associated with rats, however, vermin can also cause Leptospirosis, Listeria, Salmonella, and Toxoplasma among others.
Along with posing a health risk, rats can put your commercial or residential property at threat in other ways. Rats have a habit of chewing through electrical cables which can leave you exposed to the possibility of fire. Cables are not the only thing that rats will chew through, they also target pipework which can lead to them bursting, putting your home or business at serious risk of flooding, and leading to costly drainage repairs.
By fitting rat blockers, you can properly safeguard your property against the possibility of rodent infestation. So if you would like to get all the information about our rat blocker installation service, call our team today.
