Rats in Richmond upon Thames
Most rat problems we see in Richmond upon Thames start outdoors, around Old Deer Park and Kew Gardens or close to the Duke of Northumberland's River and the River Crane, before rats find a way into a house through a damaged drain, an air brick or a gap around pipework.
Take Teddington as an example. Teddington has Victorian and Edwardian houses by Bushy Park and Teddington Lock, the Thames' tidal limit. Burrows along fence lines and under garden buildings are the classic sign here, and rats often reach the house through an air brick or a gap by a waste pipe.
