Not only do Bandicoot rats need to be removed from gardens – and prevented from returning – to minimise damage and spread of disease but also as the first line of defence in preventing them from entering your home by immediate knockdown.

Special care is needed for properties with integral garages or with dog or cat flaps as bandicoot rats can use these to get into the home.
