The harm of rats and the best way to eliminate them

A mouse is a kind of rodent. There are more than 450 kinds of large and small species. There are more than 450 species. The number is large and there are several billions. It reproduces quickly and has strong vitality. It can eat almost anything and live anywhere. According to the company’s description, there are more than 170 species of rodents in my country, and there are 33 major species of rodents in southern my country.

Rats are one of the four common items of rodent control companies. Every unit, every family or every person has the problem of how much rats breed rats. Rats and our lives cannot be said to be not close enough! Rats not only bite our furniture, swallow our food, but also carry a lot of germs, which are easy to spread. For us humans, if something in your house is bitten, rat feces, rat marks, etc., then the rodent control company tells you that there must be rat activity. In addition to consuming and contaminating food, rats also gnaw on packaging materials, furniture, wood, and household appliances. According to official statistics, a quarter of unexplained fires in households may be caused by rats biting electric wires. Rats not only have a serious impact on the comfortable home environment, they may also cause serious potential dangers.

The harm of rats and the best way to eliminate them

1. What are the main hazards of rats:

1. Spreading diseases:

Mice are the reservoirs or vectors of many diseases. It is known that 57 kinds of diseases transmitted by mice to humans are plague, epidemic hemorrhagic fever, leptospira, typhus, and tick relapsing fever. Rodents can transmit diseases directly to humans or spread to humans and animals through ectoparasites. The lives taken by rodent-borne diseases in history are estimated by experts to exceed the total number of deaths in all wars in history.

Three ways to spread disease:

 1) Rat ectoparasites are used as a vector to infect the pathogen to humans when they bite the human body and suck blood;

2) Rats with pathogenic microorganisms in their bodies contaminate food or water sources through rat activities or feces, causing human illnesses after eating;

 3) Rats directly bite people or pathogens invade through trauma and cause infection.

2. Harm to industrial and agricultural household life:

The biting habit of rats directly harms cables, and optical cables cause equipment disconnection or damage. 20% of fires in the world are caused by rats.

2. How to eliminate the mouse after it is found:

1. Environmental rodent control:

Rats need water, food, and sheltered conditions to survive and reproduce. Therefore, creating an environment that is not suitable for its survival can greatly reduce the amount of rodents in a place and make it easy to consolidate the results of rodent control. Therefore, we must first do a good job in environmental sanitation, remove weeds and randomly stacked objects around the house, and frequently clean indoor and outdoor sanitation. All kinds of utensils and sundries must be cleaned up. Suitcases, wardrobes, books, shoes and hats must be checked frequently. Make rodents nest.

 Cut off food for rats: Rat food includes not only human food, but also feed, garbage, leftovers from the food industry, feces, etc. These things must be stored in covered containers with no gaps, so that the rats cannot get food. And passively eat the poisonous bait, in order to achieve the purpose of eliminating the mouse.

2. Physics deratization method:

Also known as the method of deratization with equipment, it has been used for a long time and has more application methods. It not only includes a variety of special mouse traps, such as mouse traps and cages, but also includes pressing, locking, closing, clamping, turning, filling, digging, sticking, and shooting. Physics and rodent control also pay attention to certain science and technology. For example, the squirrel cage (clamp) should be placed at the mouth of the mouse hole, and there should be a certain distance from the mouse hole. Sometimes camouflage is used to increase the killing rate; the bait on the squirrel cage should be fresh , Should be the food that rodents love to eat. Generally, it is not easy for mice to go to the basket on the first night because of the “new object reaction”, and the basketing rate will increase after two or three days.

3. Chemical rodent control:

Also known as the drug deratization method, it is the most widely used and most effective method of deratization. Drug deratization can be divided into intestinal poison deratization and fumigation deratization. Intestinal rodenticides used as rodenticides are mainly organic compounds, followed by inorganic compounds and wild plants and their extracts. Gastrointestinal rodenticides are required to have good palatability to rats, will not refuse to eat, and have adequate virulence. Various poison baits are mainly made from it, with good effect, simple usage and large dosage. Followed by poisonous water, poisonous powder, poisonous glue, poisonous foam and so on. Fumigation and deratization, such as aluminum phosphide and chloropicrin can be used for fumigation and deratization in warehouses and ships.

4. Biological rodent control method:

It includes two aspects: one is the use of natural enemies to kill rats. There are many natural enemies of rodents, mainly small carnivorous beasts such as yellow ferrets, wild cats, domestic cats, foxes, etc., birds of prey such as eagles, owls, etc., and snakes. . Therefore, protecting these rodents’ natural enemies is beneficial to reducing rodent damage.

5. Ecological rodent control:

That is, by improving the environment, including rodent-proof buildings, cutting rodent food, reforming farmland, improving indoor and outdoor environmental sanitation, removing hidden rodents, etc., that is, controlling, reforming, and destroying the living environment and conditions that are conducive to the survival of rodents. So that rodents can’t survive and reproduce in those places. Ecological rodent control is a very important part of comprehensive rodent control.
