These rats often enter a structure during cold seasons when food sources are scarce. They are prolific breeders, having an average of 7 or 8 offspring several times a year.

Habitat

These rodents live in fields, farm lands, and in structures. They are excellent climbers and can enter a home through holes the size of a quarter. Once inside a home, they most often live on the ground floor or in basements.  If you ask, what’s the best way to get rid of rats in your home? Then let Pest Products Online provide you the professional resources to eliminating these pesky rodents.

Health Risks

They can be reservoirs of bubonic plague (transmitted to humans by the bite of a flea or other insect), and are known to cause endemic typhus fever and rat bite fever.

Property Damage

Norway rats can chew through wiring, causing fires or damage to outside electric equipment; such as well pumps and air conditioner systems. Inside, rats contaminate food for humans and pets. They can cause damage to wood, clothing, books, paper, and dry wall.

Prevention

Keep food in sealed plastic containers. Seal holes larger than ¼ inch around doors, windows, and your foundation. Keep firewood and other debris away from your home. Plus, keep outside garbage cans tightly sealed.
