Rats and mice are adept at hiding, yet they leave clear indicators of their presence. If you suspect a rodent problem in your Hastings property, look out for these common signs:

• Droppings: Small, dark pellets found in cupboards, lofts, or near food sources.
• Gnaw Marks: Chewing on skirting boards, food packaging, furniture, or electrical cables – a significant fire risk.
• Scratching Noises: Sounds of movement, especially at night, coming from walls, lofts, or under floorboards.
• Sightings: Seeing a live rodent, particularly in daytime, suggests a larger infestation.
• Urine Smells: A strong, musky odour, particularly noticeable in enclosed areas.
• Nests: Shredded materials like fabric or paper indicate nesting sites in secluded spots like lofts or behind appliances.

Rodents in Hastings are often drawn to terraced properties, drains, compost bins, or outdoor areas, seeking warmth, shelter, and food. Identifying these signs early is crucial for swift action.
