Rats are undoubtedly the real hazard for your home and even for your society. They are known for doing damages at the banks of irrigation canals and levees and tear down electrical wires or water pipes, either in structures or below ground. In residential areas, these rats tear up insulation for making their shelters or easily chomp electrical wirings. While finding a shelter under a refrigerator or freezer, they sometimes feed on stored foods and destroy the insulated wires around the equipment.
They further chomp up openings through doors, window sills, walls, ceilings, and floors that results a considerable harm to insulated structures. In some farming areas, roof rats cause noteworthy losses of tree crops such as citrus and avocados and, to a smaller degree, walnuts, almonds, and other nuts. They habitually eat all the pulp from oranges while the fruit is still hanging on the tree and leave behind only the empty peel. They also hole down & eat carrots, leaving the green leaves on top. Rats are double trouble with the potatoes, tunneling down to eat the potatoes, & knocking down the soil in the crest, divulging the potatoes which then go green.
