There are about 7 billion rats in the world. Truth be told, it is quite impossible to prove this number because rats multiply quickly and they can easily hide from humans. It is safe to say, however, that there are so many of them out there so there may be one or a few in your home right now. If you know for sure that you have a rat problem, call for rat removal service right away.
Compared to other mammals, rats are fairly small. However, the damage and danger they bring can be very significant. In fact, just one rat can create a whole lot of damage in your home if you don’t find ways to get rid of it right away. Among the many problems you can have with rats are the following:
- Rats can chew on your furniture, food, and other items around your home.
- Although they’d rather run away from humans, there’s always a possibility for rats to bite. There are plenty of reports of rat bites while humans are asleep. In addition, they can attack you when they are cornered and when they feel threatened.
- Rats carry a lot of viruses and diseases. Their droppings and urine can cause serious and even deadly diseases too.
There are indeed plenty of DIY rat traps out there. You can buy those sticky traps or tiny cages that can capture the rat in your home. Some people even opt for poison that instantly kills rats. However, not all of these DIY methods are effective. Many times, we’ve seen them temporarily stop a rat invasion but the problem comes back eventually. This is why it is more ideal to call for expert rat removal service.
