Rats
Rats carry the same diseases and cause the same kinds of damage as
mice, but on a much larger scale. They are similar to mice when young, but
much bigger as adults weighing around 12 ounces or more. Rats are generally
reddish brown in color and greasy looking as they seldom groom themselves
and their tales are bare. They have a blunt nose and small ears and their
droppings are black and larger than mice droppings. Rats will consume almost
anything edible and are notorious for raiding pet food and water left
outdoors. Bird feeders can be a problem as well. Rats and mice both love
seeds and grains.
Rats and mice multiply rapidly and their population can get out of control
in a short period of time. Because of the health risks alone, a rodent
problem should be dealt with quickly. A program involving baiting and the
use of different traps is very effective in eliminating the problem indoors
closing off any access points used by the rodents to get in.
