Rats are small, warm-blooded rodents found almost everywhere in the world. Their large teeth allow them to gnaw almost anything and they can be dangerous when they take up residence in your home because they carry diseases and parasites. Get rid of them by calling a professional exterminator or using traps and prevention methods on your own.
Trap
Set up a trap with bait. There are many types of traps that exist on the market. Choose the trap you prefer and make sure you place food in it to attract the rodent.
Ultrasound device
Ultrasound is extremely annoying for rodents and they have no other way than to seek other shelter. After 1 to 2 days of use, they will all go away.
Use glue boards
These are sticky, flat pieces of wood that trap rats until you can remove them. You will have to kill them yourself afterwards. To do this, you can trample him, hit him with something hard. Then throw the corpse in the trash.
Use herbs
In addition to using chemicals, you can use herbs. Rats particularly hate mint and wormwood. You’d better plant these herbs with your neighbors, which will minimize the number of rats in your area. It is also advisable to rub a little peppermint oil or keep fresh mint leaves inside cabinets or drawers to solve localized rat problems.
