Rats and mice cause 8% of all house and building fires in the U.S. In U.S. average 1.6 million home and building catch fires each year. In the last 10 years, more than 194,000 people have been injured in home and building fires, and almost 37,000 people have died. Rodents started 8% of all these fires by chewing through electrical wiring and causing a short circuit. Plastic insulation surrounding electrical wiring exists because electricity is quite hot when it goes through wires. The insulation protects nearby objects from getting overheated. However, when a rat or other rodent has been going after your wires, they leave nothing left but the hot, exposed metal. From there, it’s only a matter of time before the wire either short circuits, causing a spark, or heats up and causes something nearby to ignite. Usually, household insulation or other debris that are stirred up by the rodents are what sets fire.
In the U.S., 30% of all homes contain unwanted rodents. In fact, these rats and mice are known as ‘commensal’ rodents. The term means ‘eating at the same table with’ humans, and they’re called that because they thrive in close proximity to people.
All rodents have prominent, continually growing incisor teeth. Because these teeth never stop growing, rats and mice find pleasure gnawing every day to wear down their teeth. If they don’t, the incisors grow too big to gnaw food, and they can´t feed properly. That’s why they like to make their home where there’s plenty to chew on: between walls, in drop ceilings and subfloors, in attics and garages, behind appliances, and in pantries.
One pair of mice can make 15,000 more mice in just one year. In addition to starting fires, rats and mice carry 35 known diseases, some of them are fatal, so it’s important to get them out of your home pronto. The solutions such as poison and traps are dangerous to children and pets, leave a mess for you to clean up, and don’t work all that well.

Monster rats the size of CATS are roaming the streets – and they aren’t afraid of humans

Giant rats that are as big as cats are terrorizing people in Auckland – and they aren’t afraid of humans, locals say.
The monster rodents are running wild through Auckland, New Zealand, and authorities are struggling to get the situation under control, Stuff reported.
A local woman said she had to get rats removed from her roof and that she’d seen rats running up the road for the first time in 11 years, while local man Rob Wadmore managed to record the animals running around near a car park.
‘I saw an estimate of about six to 10 rats running up the bank, they didn’t seem scared of human beings .. they were 30 metres from the shops,’ Mr Wadmore said.

RATTED OUT
Family-of-five driven out of their home by plague of ‘2ft long’ U-bend swimming monster rats
The 36-year-old dad says he saw one of the enormous rats swimming back up the toilet

A FAMILY have been driven out of their home by a plague of U-bend swimming monster rats.
John Rising, 36, said he and partner Joanne had no option but to quit the rented home in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, with their three sons.
He said they were terrified that the rodents, some nearly 2ft long, would bite them and spread a killer disease with their germs and urine.
John has killed several rats but says more infest the mid-terrace property rented from Cheltenham Borough Homes.
He said: “It started about two months ago and it’s got so bad that we have moved out because the rats were in the kitchen.
“About a month ago my 14-year-old son was in the bathroom and saw one actually in the toilet.
“He called me and I rushed to have a look. I could see the rat’s tail and bum swimming back out of toilet, back up the U-bend.”
