Rats in Wandsworth
With the Thames and the Beverley Brook running through the borough and green spaces like King George's Park and Battersea Park, Wandsworth has plenty of places for rats to live. Busy streets such as Putney High Street and Northcote Road add food waste to the mix.
In Nine Elms (SW8), for instance: Nine Elms is one of London's biggest new developments, with towers around the US Embassy, Battersea Power Station and the Northern line extension. Waterside homes see rats coming up through the drainage network, and new developments can disturb established colonies during building work.
Rats in Battersea, Putney and Balham
Battersea, Putney and Balham are mainly Victorian and Edwardian terraces. Rats in period houses tend to run under suspended floors and behind bath panels, usually after getting in through a broken drain or an old air brick.
Rats in Wandsworth Town and Nine Elms
Wandsworth Town and Nine Elms are mainly riverside and canal-side homes. Rats living along the water travel easily through sewers, so we check toilets, drains and the gaps where pipes enter the building.
