Appearance - Rats have red eyes, black or white fur, and shrieks. They are typically 6-10 inches long (depending on the type) with a hairless tail. Brown rats (also known as Norway rats) are slightly larger than roof rats, with a thicker body, smaller eyes, and a shorter snout than their black rat cousins.
Behavior - Rats tend to be bigger than mice or other rodents, often found in basements, garages, outside near garbage disposals and even scurrying around your home. They are nocturnal. Rats can fit into holes that are ½ inch or even smaller, so having any open holes or gaps in your home may be a way that rats are getting in. Rat droppings are pellet-like in appearance.They are dark colored and about ¾ inch long.
Rats, like any other species, need a place to live and breed. Homes, garages, and apartments provide the perfect location for rats to keep safe and be able to eat, sleep and reproduce without disruption.
Holes in your foundation or walls that lead from a basement or outside are an opportunistic entrance for rats to find their new accommodations within your Indian Wells, AZ residence. Being able to fit in ½ inch or less spaces gives rats a leg up in entering your home, even if you have tried to fill in obvious holes and gaps in your walls and foundation.
Having rats does not mean you live in unhealthy conditions, but having food sources accessible could entice a rat to enter and begin living in your home. Professional rat control is recommended before one rat turns into a full blown rat infestation.
Rats tend to scrounge through garbage for food, and this causes them to be carriers of many different bacteria and diseases. They also are known for being traditional carriers of fleas and ticks due to the conditions they tend to live in. Flea bites from rats can cause extreme allergic reactions and ticks can carry Lymes disease.
Beyond topical threats, the bacteria carried on rats can cause leptospirosis, which can affect the liver and kidneys, and salmonellosis, which produces cramping and diarrhea.
These threats and the rat droppings they will leave behind could cause you and your family to become very sick if a rat infestation is left untreated.

I recommend Bulwark Exterminating and the technician to everyone! Our technician is respectful and very professional!
We had two other pest control providers in the past that rendered us so dissatified. Upon knowing about Bulwark Exterminating we immediately decided to shift companies which was actually our best decision ever. On their first applicaion alone, we were almost bug-free already. Also, the technicians are proper and decent people, we are happy the ours is very friendly, well groomed and professional. I will definitely recommend this company to our friends and relatives.
I left a message at aroung 8AM and they called me back in 20 minutes, and provided me with same-day service. The technicians were highly skilled and personable. I hope they keep up the great service.
The Bulwark Exterminating technician serviced our home and did an amazing job. He was very courteous & accomodating to all my questions.
This company is very good, and its employees are friendly. They were punctual, tediously did the inspection, and detailed with the pest control plan for our rat problem that we have been dealing with for a few years. As early as two days after the treatment, I haven?t seen any rodent activity in the house and mild activity outside.
Just had Bulwark Exterminating out on Tuesday for my regular treatment, and I really appreciate how they try to work around your schedule. They even call you in advance, which is more than I can say for many furniture stores. The reps did a very thorough job inspecting and treating both inside and out of my house, from my backyard, shed, and garage to my gutters, deck, and driveway. Since they did the treatment, I no longer felt like spiders were invading my home. Thank you, Bulwark Exterminating, for an exceptional job!
