Rats in Waltham Forest
Most rat problems we see in Waltham Forest start outdoors, around Lloyd Park and Walthamstow Marshes or close to the Walthamstow Reservoirs and the Ching Brook, before rats find a way into a house through a damaged drain, an air brick or a gap around pipework.
Take Chingford as an example. Chingford is suburban and green, bordering Epping Forest and the Lee Valley reservoirs. 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.
Rats in Walthamstow, Leyton and Leytonstone
Victorian and Edwardian terraces make up a large part of Walthamstow, Leyton and Leytonstone. Older terraces often have clay drains that crack with age, and a single broken joint can let rats into the void under a kitchen floor.
Rats in Chingford and Highams Park
Much of the housing in Chingford and Highams Park is suburban semis and gardens. In houses with gardens, bird feeders, open compost and pet food left outside are the usual attraction, and decking provides ideal shelter.

How treatment works
Survey: The technician inspects the property, works out how many rats and where they are travelling, and looks for the likely way in. Then we treat, explain what we found, and advise whether a follow-up is likely.
