Heavy flooding in the UK increases risk of rodent infestations, warns National Pest Technicians Association.

The National Pest Technicians Association (NPTA) warns that heavy flooding in the UK has increased the risk of rodent infestations as disrupted food sources drive rodents into homes and businesses. NPTA advises securing food and waste and inspecting properties for entry points like gaps and cracks. Understanding the impact of weather on rodent behavior and proactively rodent-proofing properties can help prevent these infestations.
