Rats chew on electrical wires primarily for instinct, necessity, and dental health. Their constant need to chew is an innate instinct to keep their teeth from growing too long. Gnawing on various objects, including electrical wires, helps wear down their ever-growing incisors but of course this causes problems for householders when the have an infestation of Rats.
According to PEST UK there are more rats around than usual this February. They say that in ‘normal’ years, rat enquiries peak in January but this year due to the warmer Winter the rat problems appear to be coming in later in February. Rat and mouse populations peak in the Autumn after taking advantage of the warm weather and abundant food of the late Summer and Autumn. These rats will migrate towards buildings and gardens as the weather gets colder and the vegetation dies back. The warm Winter has made these problems less pressing but leaving the rat and mouse population high but a lower percentage of that rat and mouse population coming into contact with people, building and gardens. This has started to change as February has been colder than January and this has lead to increasing calls about rat problems.
