You most likely will come across ripped paper, droppings, or even an actual nest before you see a Rat, if they have found a spot out of sight and not typically traveled through your house such as a basement corner or crawl space.
Rats tend get confused with other species similar such as Mice or Voles. Rats will normally have coloring ranging from black, brown, or grey when found in the wild. Unlike Mice or Voles, Rats tend to be larger in size than other vermin, usually between 5 and 12 inches long at adulthood.
Rats can be both a risk to your family’s health and infrastructure. Rats will tend to gnaw on wood and other materials in your home to keep their teeth honed. They are also known carriers of diseases in their droppings and urine, one major one being salmonella which can cause family members to become very sick. Rats will also reproduce, causing a larger problem as more Rats are born. You will want to call a Rat exterminator after you have noticed a potential vermin problem within your home.
