Rats are smart little creatures — but not the kind you want as houseguests. Once they find food, water, and a cozy spot to hide, they can settle in quickly and become a big problem.

Let’s walk you through how rats behave, what risks they bring, and how you can keep them away from your home.

🧠 Behavior - What Are They Up To ?

Night Owls: Rats are most active at night — you might hear them scurrying in the ceiling or walls.

Always Chewing: Their teeth never stop growing, so they gnaw on wood, wires, pipes — almost anything!

Nest Builders: They love hidden, quiet places like ceiling, under the sink, or behind appliances.

🐀 Life Cycle – Why They Multiply So Fast ?

Fast Breeders: One female can have up to 6 litters per year, with 6–12 babies each time!

Quick Growth: Baby rats grow fast — they can start breeding in just 5 weeks.

- That’s how one or two rats can turn into a full-blown infestation in no time.

Health Hazards: Rats can spread diseases like leptospirosis, salmonella, and hantavirus through urine and droppings.

Fire Risk: Their chewing can damage electrical wiring, increasing the chance of short circuits or fires.

Food Contamination: They’re not clean animals — anything they touch is no longer safe to eat.

⚠️ Risks of a Rat Infestation

🛡️ How to Keep Rats Away

Seal Gaps: Close off entry points around pipes, drains, and walls using cement or other form of sealing materials.

Keep It Clean: Don’t leave food out and store waste in sealed bins. Rats are attracted to food scent.

Fix Leaks: Fix any leaks of pipes or taps as rats are drawn to water sources too.

Declutter: Less clutter means fewer places for them to hide.

Food Storage: Store food in airtight containers.

Rubbish: Keep your kitchen clean and take out the trash regularly.
