Rats Vs. Humans

Rats Vs. Humans

Rats have lived in very close proximity to people for thousands of years and, in fact, have followed them around the globe. Rats have taken advantage of humans' dwellings for warmth and have eaten the crumbs that have fallen from their tables. This has led them to be able to inhabit areas that would normally have been uninhabitable for them. The relationship has not always been harmonious.  This is partly because rats also carry and spread well over thirty human diseases in their urine, saliva and faeces. As well as this they also cause a dramatic amount of damage to people's property by chewing wires, containers and tubing. As well as this they often spoil spoil food and stock.

Sometimes when they chew they are looking for food. At other times, particularly when they chew wiring, they are wearing away their teeth. These grow continuously throughout their lives. Hammer Technologies new rat repellent flooring should help put an end to this problem.

Damage to an individual car can be in the region of £400 on average, peaking at around £7000 for a full rewire of an expensive sports car. Prevention is a must. Visit Hammer Technologies website to find out more about how you can save yourself a huge sum of money.
