Rats

Rat control is important to avoid a number of serious diseases, which rats are known to transmit. There are nearly a dozen diseases directly linked to rats and the ever prevalent disease spread by rats in Brunei is Leptospirosis. Besides that, rats also carry secondary pest in their fur such as fleas, mites and ticks.

Rats can be very persistent and if they manage to gain access into your home or business premises they can spread these diseases, cause considerable damage and contaminate food.

Rats in the Home or Garden 

It is extremely serious if rats are getting into your home even if they are not entering a direct living area. Any rat problem inside the home must be treated urgently. 

Rats in the garden and other external areas can also be high risk, particularly in areas used by children or pets. It is important to get rid of rats in the garden to reduce the risk of them trying to enter the home. 

Special care is needed for properties with integral garages or with dog or cat flaps as rats can use these to get into the home

Business Consequences

• Alarm — immediate loss of trust from customers and employees especially in food processing, industrial & manufacturing and food & beverage sectors.
• Damage — of goods and equipment such as computers, electrical appliances, wires and pipes in offices and business premises.
• Losses — infestations may cause product recalls and loss of contracts which can lead to financial loss and bad company reputation.
• Legal — failure to comply with legislation could lead to business closure or fines.

Even rats in the garden and outside can also present tremendous risk, particularly since those areas are visited by children and pets.
