Damage To PropertyÂ
Rats are known for chewing through walls and electrical wires, making them a very real fire hazard. In addition to this, they can also cause water damage due to their habit of gnawing on water pipes. Rats will also chew through furniture, carpets, rugs, clothing, and other fabrics to build nests or search for food. This type of destruction can be costly to repair.Â
Health RisksÂ
Rats spread diseases such as salmonellosis, rabies, rat-bite fever, and hantavirus pulmonary syndrome (HPS). Salmonellosis is an infection caused by bacteria that is spread through contact with rat feces or urine; it can cause vomiting, diarrhea, and fever in humans.
Â
Rabies is rare but still dangerous; if someone is bitten by an infected rat they must receive treatment immediately to prevent death from rabies virus infection.
Â
Rat-bite fever is contracted when a person comes into contact with an infected rat or its saliva; symptoms include fever and joint pain among others.
Â
Finally, HPS is a severe lung disease that can be fatal if not treated properly; it is caused by inhaling particles of rodent droppings or urine that have been contaminated by infected rodents such as rats or mice.Â
