Before the temperatures really decline outside, some creatures that use the hospitality of nature will begin to look for hiding in our houses during the summer. A typical example is rats, but we try to keep as far as possible. This will succeed thanks to one common ingredient, for which it is enough to go to the pantry.
Rats are very intelligent, adaptable and also inventive. It is not easy to think of them at all, because most of them will see very soon and can adapt to such adversity. Therefore, it is best to bet on what they just don’t think – and that’s their perfect sense of smell.
While some try to get rid of rats in all possible ways, their lovers cannot praise such a society:
They rely on their smell
Like other animals, rats also have an extremely high -quality sense of smell, which on the one hand helps them survive the pitfalls they have to face during their lives (they live for two to three years if they do not overcome them during that time). Thanks to the smell they seek food, a sniffing danger, but they also manage to find the ideal refuge that can become our home. We do not have to reach for aggressive poisons immediately unless we want to share a common house with them. It is surprisingly a simpler and especially effective solution.
