RE: How to avoid rat infestation at home

Thank you so much for this wonderful piece, sir. This reminds me of my childhood when we had some very troublesome rats in the house. Not only that they constitute a nuisance in the house, but they also bit our hands and feet then. People believed that the rat will be biting you and blowing breeze at the same time, such that you won't notice the biting until it starts bleeding.

However, with the increased of awareness zoonotic diseases and other diseases transmitted by rats, the challenges of rats in the house have gone beyond the bites.

Then, we used rat poison and traps to get rid of them, however, those methods can constitute chemical and mechanical hazards in the home.

Thanks for suggesting better and safer methods of getting rid of these rats in the household.

I remember last week when a neighbor was pursuing a rat from his quarter, it ran into my room. I tumbled my room that day and made sure that we killed it. And currently, I am at peace because my house is completely rat-free.
