HOT SUMMER AND WET WEATHER SEES RAT NUMBER SOAR
Coventry Telegraph
|March 05, 2026
RAT activity in UK properties has significantly increased over the last year, thought to be due to a record hot summer and exacerbated by recent wet weather.
-
Rentokil Pest Control said it had recorded a 10% year-on-year increase in confirmed rodent activity, with a 16% increase in the West Midlands.
Rentokil said longer-term climate patterns could be contributing to the increase, including 2025 being the UK's warmest year on record.
It said milder weather could increase rat reproduction by extending their breeding season and leading to larger populations.
