Secure Your Property with Our High-Quality Sewer Rat Flaps – Installed by Experts
What is a Rat Flap?
A rat flap is a specialised one-way valve installed in drainage and sewer pipes to prevent rats from entering properties through the plumbing system. It is a non-toxic, humane, and permanent solution to stop rodents from accessing homes and businesses via underground sewer lines.
How Does a Rat Flap Work?
-
The stainless steel flap is placed inside the drain pipe, allowing water and waste to flow out but blocking rats from entering.
-
When the sewer is in use, the flap opens outward to let waste pass through.
-
Once the flow stops, the flap closes automatically, stopping rats from travelling up the pipes.
Rats entering through drain pipes and sewers is one of the leading causes of infestations in properties.

Why You Need a Rat Flap in Your Drainage System
Rats use sewer pipes to enter homes and businesses, looking for warmth, shelter, and food. Without proper protection, they can:
❌ Chew through pipes & insulation – Causing expensive structural damage.
❌ Spread diseases like salmonella & meningitis – Posing health risks.
❌ Contaminate food supplies & water – A major issue for businesses & households.
❌ Multiply rapidly – A single rat can produce 600+ offspring in a lifetime.
