flag UK pest experts warn of rising rodent activity during Christmas and urge home inspections for signs of infestation.

flag Pest control experts from the British Pest Control Association are urging UK households to check for rats and mice during the Christmas season, warning that increased activity in homes and lofts raises infestation risks. flag They recommend inspecting storage areas, especially when retrieving decorations, for droppings, gnaw marks, damaged packaging, and old nests. flag Gaps around eaves, windows, and cable entries are common entry points, and damage to wood, pipes, or electrical cables may indicate rodent presence. flag The BPCA advises sealing access points but warns against disturbing bird nests, as wild birds and their nests are protected under UK law. flag Early detection and professional help are emphasized to prevent pest problems and ensure a safe holiday season.
