Roof Rats Roof rats are generally smaller in size and more slender than the
Norway rat. It has a pointed snout, larger ears and a tail longer than its
body. It lives for about a year and can have up to five litters in this
time. They are often found indoors of buildings and around docks. They are
more suited to city life. Here they can use their climbing skills to get up
into high building and to climb across cables and branches to gain access
to other buildings and roof voids. They generally nest in roof voids and
wall voids but may roam and feed freely all over the building. When outside
they usually don’t burrow and are found in trees and vines. They consume a
high amount of vegetables and fruit materials. If you are having a
