Columbus Rodent Removal Tip:

Are rats able to enter a property through the plumbing?
As a concerned homeowner, it's only natural to want to be well-informed on the various dangers that exist for your home, so that you can better prepare yourself and aim towards preventing them. One of the most common issues that property-owners all across the United States complain about are rats, and so it's hugely important to learn about how these rodents can get into your home so that you can take the necessary preventive steps.

Rats and Plumbing - is there a connection?
Naturally, rats can easily get in through windows or doors, or other such obvious open spaces or cracks. But what about the plumbing in your house?

As it happens, one of the most popular entry methods for rats is through the drain pipes attached to your home. As everyone knows, rats tend to dwell in sewers, since these allow them to stay hidden and thus safe from several predators. Another reason why rats prefer sewers and drain pipes is that they require daily doses of water, which drain pipes allow them easy access to. Their existence in the sewage system also allows them easy access to drain pipes, and thus, to homes.

Now, many homeowners make the mistake of assuming that rats won't get in through the piping, because the pipes are vertical, and surely, rats can't climb through them. Wrong. They can and they most likely will. 

As it turns out, rats are quite agile climbers, and they won't have any trouble at all running up your drain pipes and straight into your home. Rats are highly flexible creatures, and the way their limbs and ribs are built allow them to easily come up the drain pipes, much to homeowners' bafflement.

So to answer our title question, yes, it's not only possible for rats to enter homes through the plumbing, it is in fact quite likely. 

What can you do about it?
The first thing we need to consider is the reason the rats are trying to get into your home in the first place. Much like any other creature in this Universe, rats are just looking for a source of food and a good, warm place to call home. And while there's not much you can do about warmth, you can do quite a bit about the food situation in your home. In order to prevent rats from being attracted to your property, experts recommend:

• Keeping leftovers in a tight, safe container. Don't leave food lying about, as that's what's attracting the rats in the first place. Remember this also includes pet food, so make sure you dispose of uneaten pet food and water before you go to bed, and don't leave it out for a prolonged period, otherwise it may appeal to rats.
• Clean your home regularly. Mess and crumbs are common attractions for rats, as is clutter. Messy homes are easier to inhabit than clean homes, so rats are that much more likely to flock to your house if it's unkempt, so make sure you thoroughly clean your home at regular intervals, to deter rats.

Aside from these obvious prevention points, you might also consider installing a rat-blocker on your pipes, if rats in the drain system are something that worries you. Rat-blockers, as the name suggests, are these specially designed contraptions made of rubber or plastic, that look pretty much like a grate, and that can be fitted on or inside your pipes, to allow water and other such to pass through, but to block rodents from coming through. 

Yes, rats can come through the plumbing, but this is considered an easily manageable problem by experts!
