A pest control provider has issued a warning about “rodents at this time of year” as rats seek water during the warm weather.
Rentokil have said that mice and rats live in and around our buildings and pose a pest risk all year round. They are known to seek water during hot weather and so can be common in the summer months.
A spokesperson for Rentokil told Dublin Live: "Pest rodents such as the common rat and the house mouse are commensal rodents and have adapted to exploit humans and our behaviours. They take advantage of our buildings and infrastructure in order to gain food, water, shelter and warmth.
