Live Traps

March 12, 2019 by MERSEYPEST 34 Comments

Pest Control Liverpool - MerseyPest

A second visit this morning brings a surprise catch. The customer had wanted traps out for the squirrels in his garden that had started chewing through his soffit boards. He had requested live traps as he feeds the hedgehogs and didn’t want them harming. After uncovering the traps two squirrels were found but also one rat. The customer hadn’t been aware other rodents were in his garden. Now he can put poison down to remove the rats too before they become problematic.

To see more details on either animal click the links.

November the Month of the Rat

November 13, 2018 by MERSEYPEST Leave a Comment

pest control liverpool

As the weather gets colder the local rodent populations start to struggle more outside. Food becomes more scarce and rats start to seek warmer harbourage points.

Its essential at this time of year to make sure your house is proofed against any unwanted ingress. It can be as simple as walking round the outside of the house and making sure all small holes are filled.

Places to pay attention to are around pipes, where original mortar may have cracked and fallen away. Any loose pointing around bricks. Under door sills and window sills and around garage doors.

To prevent mice coming in is slightly more difficult as they as so small. It is still worth doing the same checks as for rats but also using a fine grade stainless steel mesh to cover over air vents in bricks. Mice can easily pass through these. If you can get a pen in to a hole a mouse can pass through it.

Make your house as safe as you can against rodents in Winter.

All the best,

Robin

Rat in Roof Space

June 26, 2017 by MERSEYPEST 97 Comments

Rat in Extension Roof

Rat in Extension Roof

A rat has been heard in an extension roof space as a customer was working at his computer. It could be heard scrabbling up the internal Cavity of the wall and in to the roof. Once in the roof it could be heard hopping over the joists as it looked around.

On the initial inspection droppings and a hole leading in to the cavity were found. Bags of rodenticide were left. On the second visit the bait had been partly consumed and the bag pulled in to the insulation of the cavity. Smear marks of the red bait can be seen over the joists as the rat has tried to take as much bait as possible.

The outside of the property was carefully checked and no holes were found. Where there is no holes and rats are in the extension it often points to a problem in the drains letting the rats in.

A drain inspection is recommended to fix any flaws in the drain.

See here for more information on rats.

Rat Wirral

Rat Wirral

Rats are always near by and will use any opportunity to exploit our houses. In this particular case on the Wirral rats have been in the drain and have dug a hole underneath the drain cover and under the flags.

The lower side of the drain cover and hole can be seen on the first photo. The second photo shows how the rats have dug under the flags and over to the edge of the house. Once against the house the rats had dug under an old door lintel and in to the house.

The customer had rats in her cavity walls on a few occasions until she called us to find and remove the problem.

The treatment process is relatively simple now the breach has been found. The flag was raised on house bricks (as seen on the second photo) to provide a baiting point for the rats. After 2 weeks a follow will be carried out. The bait will be eaten and the rats killed.

This is when we will dig along the wall to find the hole the rats are tunnelling too. The hole will be permanently blocked and the problem will be fixed for good.

If you have a problem with rats in Wirral, Liverpool or Warrington please phone us to to help you. We take pride in our work and want to help you solve your problems permanently.

A 2 visit rat treatment costs £85.

Rats Pest Control Liverpool

May 13, 2016 by MERSEYPEST 99 Comments

In Liverpool rats are one of the most common pests that we are plagued with. There frequency shows how high the population numbers are and how close they are to us at most times. Particularly in Liverpool city centre and in some of the higher population areas.

Any food source left outside can be quickly found by rats. In some areas birds can be fed outside for years without a problem. In others throwing bread out could be the start of an infestation in days.

An obvious way to avoid this kind of infestation is to not feed the birds, don’t keep livestock animals outside and keep all waste well sealed in wheelie bins.

But what if you get them anyway???

Another common place for rats to come from is from the drains. There is plenty of food down the drains which is washed off our plates and in to the drain systems. Rats are quite happy eating this in the sewers.

They are happy at least until its time to breed. When they want to raise a family these drain rats will approach the surface as drier, warmer places can be found. All it takes is an uncapped drain or redundant connection and they can be in to a buildings foundations.

The place we deal with them most is in extensions. A drain will be moved for the new building and the old drain capped with sandbags. This leaves an incredibly easy way in for rats. A few chews on a sandbag at the bottom and it will empty the sand. Then the rat is up the cavity or ducting and in to the extension roof space.

This picture shows the inside of an extension roof space. Rats are coming through an uncapped drain, climbing the ducting and living in the roof. This is the 3rd time its happened in this particular case. The drain needs fixing to shut the door to the rats.

We can fix these problems for you. We can kill the rats and solve your drain issues. Phone us for our permanent solutions on rat control in Liverpool.

The Signs Will Be There

January 10, 2016 by MERSEYPEST 227 Comments

pest control liverpool rat hole

Regardless of the mild Winter we’re well in to rodent season. Rats and mice have already found there way in to our homes and have well established routes they take to find their food.

The photo above shows a rat hole chewed in to someones hallway. The rat has gained access to the wall cavity and has chewed through in to the house itself. Once inside it was stealing bread of the side and dragging it in to the wall.

Other signs apart from holes and missing food will be in the house. Droppings will soon appear with mice. Slightly later with rats as they have more distinct toilet areas.

Then possibly the worst of the signs is actually seeing the rodent itself. Walking to the fridge in the evening to encounter a rat on the kitchen floor is pretty startling in your own home.

Any or all of the signs mentioned above should be enough for you to act on the situation. Control measures can be bought from local hardware stores or online, or if you wish you could phone us and we can act upon it for you.

This little fella had been stealing food from a students bin. 4 student girls living in a shared house heard noises in the night. They found the courage to go downstairs to confront the intruder.

What they found was a plump rat looking at them not the expected hardened burglar.

The rat had chewed under the back door step and had gained access to the under floor space. Once in there it found its way in to the kitchen. A 2 visit control measure and we found him like this in the back yard.

A 2 visit rat treatment carried out in a hostel. Two young rats have been killed in the kitchen. Both were found under the plinths of the units.

They had chewed through the corner section of the wall and were stealing stored food.

Control was fairly simply and was carried out using poison.
