Residents of the UK need to be wary of the millions of hungry rats that might try to enter their homes. Reported by the Mirror edition.
It is noted that the likelihood of such a situation occurring is associated with the closure of pubs and restaurants in the country due to the coronavirus.
It is also noted that the coming cold weather can push animals to seek shelter and food. This was warned by the expert of the British Pest Control Association Natalie Bungey.
The expert added that rodents are able to easily adapt to their environment and they are unlikely to allow themselves to miss the opportunity to find a warm place before warmer weather. In addition, some rats grow up to 30 centimeters in length and also become immune to poisons.
“Rats and mice don't hibernate and are a problem all year round,” Bungey said.
