Types of Rats and Mice Commonly Found in Sydney
Sydney’s warm climate and dense urban areas make it ideal for several rodent species. Understanding the rodent types present on your property helps our team develop an effective rodent control strategy.
Norway Rat
The Norway rat, also called the brown rat, is a large, stocky rodent that prefers ground-level habitats. It burrows beneath sheds, along foundations, and inside subfloor areas. Norway rats are strong swimmers and commonly found near stormwater drains. They produce blunt-nosed rodent droppings up to 20 mm in length.
Roof Rat
The roof rat is an agile climber that nests in ceiling cavities, roof voids, and wall spaces. Roof rats are especially common in older Sydney homes with overhanging trees. They leave spindle-shaped droppings and are the primary cause of scratching noises heard at night.
House Mouse
The house mouse can squeeze through gaps as small as 6 mm and breeds rapidly. A single female can produce over 60 offspring per year. Mice infestations escalate quickly, making early intervention through professional pest control services critical.
