Why Do we control rats?
Rats are considered pests and are often controlled or exterminated because they can cause damage to property, spread diseases, and compete with humans for food and resources.
Rats are capable of gnawing through wood, plastic, and even electrical wiring, which can cause serious damage to buildings and homes. They can also contaminate food and water sources with their feces and urine, which can lead to the spread of diseases such as salmonella, leptospirosis, and hantavirus. In addition, rats can carry fleas and other parasites that can transmit diseases to humans and pets.
Because rats reproduce quickly and can become a serious infestation in a short period of time, it is important to control their population in order to minimise the risks they pose to humans. There are various methods for controlling rats, including trapping, poisoning, and exclusion techniques such as sealing up holes and cracks that rats use to enter buildings. It's important to use these methods safely and responsibly.
