Rats & Mice

Rats & Mice

Rodent Control


All of us in our lives have encountered rats and mice at some point, whether it’s been in the garden, at a pet shop or in a field. Those of us unfortunate enough to have experienced them in their home or business will know all too well the risks they pose and the long-term damage that can occur. 

They both are prolific breeders: a female common rat is sexually mature at 8-12 weeks and after a 21-day gestation period will give birth to a litter of 6-11 babies. She can become pregnant again when her young are 3-4 weeks old, and although she may only live for a year, she is capable of having several litters in that time. 

A female mouse is also sexually mature at 8-12 weeks and after a 17-20 day gestation period will give birth to a 5 or 6 strong litter. She can become pregnant again when her young are 3-4 weeks old, and like a female rat although she may only live to be a year old she is also capable of birthing several litters. 

Control, exclusion, and monitoring solutions

It is abundantly clear from this that rats or mice in your home or business, if left untreated, can rapidly escalate into a huge infestation. If you prepare or serve food on your premises, then Environmental Health can shut you down until the problem is brought under control. 

All our clients at Apest Solutions have both internal and external monitoring points in place, allowing problems to be detected very early on and promptly dealt with without major risk to their home or business. 

We have a complete range of solutions to address vermin problems starting with control, exclusion then monitoring. Our professional pest control services are backed up by our years of experience and insider knowledge, so contact Apest Solutions today for rat and mice pest control.
