Eastleigh Borough Council FAQs
My neighbours and I are plagued with rats can EBC deal with this problem?
Rats, roaches & the like dig tunnels, climb fences, swim, you name it! They become immune to poisens, etc. Live traps can be purchased (if you wish to waste your money) & then the creatures can be transported to a heavily wooded area (non-residential) but if you reside say, near a park or wooded area, they will always be around. They reproduce every few weeks & I'm sorry to say, will always be around (outside) you'll just have to be vigilant about not leaving doors & windows open if your residence is un-attended for more than a few minutes here & there. The rarely come inside a residence, but beware if they do as they'll leave their young to go in search of food. They are, unfortunately, here to stay...DO NOT train your pet to go after them, as the diseases they carry could possibly harm or even end the pet's life.
