They're pest 🤦I'll open fire on them with pellet 🔫🤦

Same bruh im scared of them i immediately kill them of i saw one

It sounds macabre, I'm sure, but some rat or squirrel probably dragged the trap away to feast on the mouse meat. Hey, a free meal is a free meal! (And it's not cannibalism if it isn't your own species.)

I work with rats in my lab. They really are incredibly misunderstood. I’ve found them to Be intelligent, affectionate and even kinda charming!

What...a rat in our kitchen has made our life hell, there is always this awful smell every morning the kitchen is a mess, it does not go away...

rats are super smart and empathetic animals. they learn their names and know their owners and even lick like dogs. they get bad rep. lice were what caused the black plague. there’s evidence and studies are going on about it. either way, why hate an animal just because of a plague they may or may not have started hundreds of years ago and have not brought back since

They won't come into your house as long as they have good life under your house. They need food, access to clean water, shelter from predators and a nice home that they build from whatever materials they find. Lots of people have discovered that giving rats a little food prevents them from seeking food from the trash bins or from people's homes, and offering them nesting materials like old sheets and towels cut into little strips allows them to build cosy and warm nests in places such as under your shed that they don't have a need to seek warmer housing inside human houses. Because they are a commensal species to humans they will always prefer to live near us to gain some protection against larger predators and to make use of things we discard, but it's possible to live peacefully together so that they stay out of our houses and don't cause excessive damage from their need to gnaw things. Rats aren't really more likely to carry contagiousndiseases than any other animals, they're simply as clean as the environment they live in and especially in urban areas the environment is dirty because of human activity. In cleaner cities the rats are cleaner too, and the animal itself is a bit of a clean freak and always washing itself. They just aren't capable of washing all of the city grime and pathogens that are distributed into the city environment by us.

@@SunniLeBoeufthey piss and defecate all over the place. A dead rat is the only kind of good rat. I’m 47 and never encountered one until they burrowed into my rental property. They crap everywhere and pee so it stinks. It literally has made me happy to have killed my second rat today. I am hoping that’s the end of them but who knows with these disgusting little creatures. They are smart I’ll give them that because they burrowed under the foundation and came up in the only corner that isn’t poured concrete. My plan once all dead and no more sign is to fill that corner with concrete and hope they never find another way in. Vile creatures

Same here, I feed the birds & have a few resident rats. I have 3 pet rats so they don't bother me, but I make sure they are nowhere near my house. I have only a few at the moment as the corn fields behind my house are ripening & there is plenty of food, but in the winter I get a few more. They all look extremely healthy with shiny coats lol. I just live with them.

I go see it

They will and can kill pigeons and smaller birds

@@mariabrett6712 yes. I thought so. My friends dad used to breed canaries and he had a massive rat problem. They also ate my baby chicks I had in a cage.

@@wormwood6424 wild rats eat almost everything even pet rats will kill small animals I keep domestic rats as pets I also have a half wildie but they make great pets sorry about your pigeon❤

@@mariabrett6712 no worries. I still have him. I keep him inside where he's safe lol. He's a wild wood pigeon but he has a damaged wing. I doubt whether he will ever fly again but he is so full of spirit I have no choice but to keep him lol..

@@wormwood6424 That's beautiful I love all wildlife I get wood pigeons in my garden I live in London so it's nice to see all the animals we get foxes, squirrels, rats and lots of birds thank you for answering😉❤

No Rasha, they lived at the corner of the garden. Very intelligent creatures !

U need to kill every one of them. They are not pets.

You are insane

@@iwansteffan9106 Not insane I mean just because I don't like to kill anything doesn't make me insane I didn't say I wouldn't kill them just that I didn't want to have to. I was just asking if there was anyway to let them live and keep them away from my house. I don't really feed them I feed the birds and squirrels and the rats come to eat what falls to the ground I just don't want to kill them everything is just trying to live the same as we are trying to live. I know now that I can't keep them out from under my house because the type of rats they are, Norway rats, burrow tunnels and can get under the house so now I'm looking in to humane ways to control the population via birth control or humane removal method.

@@ozarkman1478 I don't want them to be pets I don't put food out for them I put food out for the birds and squirrels and the rats eat what falls to the ground. I just hate to kill anything that's just trying to live it's life but they reproduce too fast to just live in peace with them so I have to consider ways to get rid of them I just prefer humane methods such as birth control and humane trap and relocate.

@@shattered0717 I eat rats! I know it sounds insane but they're actually gorgeous!

Did you find it outside and took it as a pet or you bought it ?

That's sad live and let live

Pest control is one thing. Enjoying it is another. You are a seriously sick and disturbed individual.

Please humane, non-lethal live traps. You may hate them, but they still have a right to live!

I like rats

Why?
