While it isn’t true to say that a Londoner is never more than six feet away from a rat (the best estimate is 164 feet away) and reports of giant rats in the city are fake, it is true that rats can be a significant reason why Clapham residents require good pest control.

What would indicate that you need pest control because of rats in your Clapham property?

• Signs of damage

The incisors of a rat never stop growing so in order to keep them under control they need to gnaw. And they will gnaw at anything, making some serious damage in your property from electrical wiring to walls to insulation to pipes.

• Night time noises

Rats are generally active after dark so if you hear gnawing, scurrying or squeaking at night coming from the attic of your Clapham property or from under your floorboards call for pest control.
