Rat
Exterminators

Philadelphia is the birthplace of our nation and home to the Liberty Bell, Independence Hall, and the Betsy Ross House. Our founding fathers signed the Declaration of Independence and the U.S. Constitution in Philadelphia. Founded by Benjamin Franklin, the first public library, The Library Company of Philadelphia, opened its doors and remains open today.

Thousands of tourists visit Philadelphia every year, visiting historical and cultural sites, dining on delicious Philly cheesesteak sandwiches, and browsing the Philadelphia Magic Gardens. While Philadelphia residents also appreciate seeing these sites on the weekends, many of them have to deal 24/7 with something much less fun and delightful–rats!

Philadelphia’s rat problem can be attributed to similar factors affecting other urban areas overrun by rats: a dense population, ample food sources, older infrastructure needing repairs, and temperate climates where rats thrive throughout the year. While home and business owners do what they can to reduce rat infestations, they rely on Viking Pest, the leading provider of expert rat control in Philadelphia, to eradicate and control these rodent invaders.

Norway and Roof Rats in Philadelphia

Philly residents who catch sight of rats are likely encountering either Norway or Roof rats. Norway rats are the larger and more assertive of the two species, sporting gray or brown fur. Growing up to a foot in length, Norway rats with accessible resources weigh as much as one pound as adults. Additionally, they are known to harbor a range of illnesses, like salmonellosis, leptospirosis, and toxoplasmosis, which have the potential to cause severe sickness in children, expectant mothers, and older adults.

The smaller, more agile Roof rat is called the “roof” rat for a good reason—it has exceptional climbing abilities and prefers nesting in attics and rooftops. Roof rats are also gray, brown, or black but have lighter bellies than Norway rats. Moreover, they carry the same diseases that Norway rats carry, leaving high loads of infectious viruses and bacteria behind in their droppings and urine.
