What to look for
If you notice droppings or gnaw marks in your home, it usually means pests are present. These signs often appear in cupboards, along skirting boards, or near food sources. Droppings can look like small pellets or dark stains, while gnaw marks may appear on packaging, furniture, or even structural wood. Another common sign is unusual sounds, such as scratching or scurrying in walls, ceilings, or under floors. These noises are often louder at night when pests are most active. You might also hear rustling in loft spaces or behind appliances. Pests can leave other traces, including greasy rub marks along walls or baseboards, shed skins from insects, or nests made from shredded materials. These signs suggest an established infestation that needs professional attention.
Why early action matters
Ignoring these signs can lead to more damage over time. Pests can contaminate food, chew through wiring, and weaken structures. A small problem today can become a costly repair if left untreated. Some pests also pose health risks by spreading bacteria or triggering allergies. Acting quickly helps protect your home and your family’s wellbeing.
