Risk of Rodents infection in your home explained
As per CDC records, rats and mice are responsible for over 35 diseases worldwide. They spread the infection to the human population directly or indirectly, and are a major cause of concern for common households. Doesn't it annoy you when you go to grab your favourite snack from the cupboard and find it was already consumed or half-eaten? The bite marks and that awful smell of their excreta is clear evidence of the food being infected. It sickens us to the stomach upon thinking that this might not be the first time food exploration for those furry little creatures and that we have been eating their infected food.
Why are rodents harmful? It may occur to you that this is just a little lovely creature, trying to feed its empty stomach and you may want to hold it in your hand, but beware.
