I ended up having a chewed piping that goes to my washing machine probably from rats.

We have set the rat traps several times with peanut butter and the smart little things ate the peanut butter without making the trap go off. Can SOMEBODY EMAIL ME OR POST with suggestions/who to call to eradicate the rats??...
You have correctly identified your problem. Have your citrus trees removed. The rats love to eat the fruit.
