Rat Facts!

Since this week was so busy and I neglected the blog a little (Sorry!!), I figured we would extend Rat Week in to Rat Weeks. There will be a new pest posted Sunday!

So, drum roll please...... SOME  FACTS ABOUT RATS!

1) Rats can be very lovable and social. They love to be around humans or other rats and will often sleep next to each other. When they are alone, rats often become sad and depressed. So when you find one rat you're likely to find more!

2) Rats are extremely intelligent. Once they figure out a path or way to get to something they want, they aren't likely to forget it

3) There is an entire temple dedicated to the rat

4) An adult rat can fit through an opening the size of a quarter (most adult rats are between 6-10 inches long depending on the breed)

5) Most rats breed within their own family: They will mate with brothers, sisters, and even young! This is what makes the rat so prevalent!
