CYPRUS PESTS
Rats
Rats are the most problematic and damaging rodents in Cyprus. They consume and contaminate food, damage structures and property, and transmit parasites and diseases to other animals and humans. Rats live and thrive under a wide variety of climates and conditions; they are often found in and around homes and other buildings, farms, gardens, and open fields.
People do not often see rats, but signs of their presence are easy to detect. It is important to know which species of rat is present in order to place traps or baits in the most effective locations.
The two species of rat in Cyprus are the Rattus Rattus and the Ship Rat.
Our technicians place specially designed rat stations in critical areas, and a chemical bait is inserted in the rat stations, which lock for extra safety. We also spray the area for fleas with chemicals (as rats carry fleas.)
