Rats not only infest gardens but homes too. They are known to cause considerable property damage, for they can chew through materials like wood, plastic and even metal, damaging structures, electrical wires and plumbing.
A combination of cold weather, floods and delays in bin collections has led to a surge of rat infestations, which could knock £20,000 or more off the value of the average UK property.

Rats are likely to be spotted in UK gardens during September as they scavenge for food and seek shelter. An expert has shared which plants may help to deter them.
