WHY ARE THERE SO MANY RATS & MICE?
Why are there so many RATS & MICE at the moment?
The gestation period for rats is only 3 weeks & they reach sexual maturity in 5 weeks. They can produce litters of 7–14 babies.
During Covid-19 Lock-Down rodent numbers increased dramatically as many rodent control programmes were put on hold, allowing for a complete uninterrupted breeding cycle during mild & dry autumn conditions.
It is important to keep bait stations fully supplied with bait - servicing during the colder weather being carried out at least monthly.
