By most standards, rats are considered pests or vermin. They can be very destructive to crops and property. Rats can quickly overpopulate when they live in a place where they have no predators, such as in certain cities, and their numbers can become hard to contain. Rats have a significant impact on food production. Estimates vary, but it is likely that anything between 1/5 and ⅓ of the world's total food output is eaten, spoiled or destroyed by rats and other rodents.
Rats can carry over thirty different diseases dangerous to humans, including Weil's disease, typhus and bubonic plague. Because they are nocturnal, when rats are seen out and about in the daytime, it can mean that their nesting areas have been disturbed or, more typically, rat activity in the daylight hours means there is overpopulation of them in the local area.
Rats often chew electrical cables. Around 26% of all electrical cable breaks are caused by rats, and around 18% of all phone cable breaks. Around 25% of all fires of unknown origin are estimated to be caused by rats. Rats, particularly roof rats (Rattus rattus), can enter the attics of homes where they mate and nest. This problem occurs commonly in coastal, temperate climates and affects even the cleanest, well-kept homes. |
