So the amount of places that rats nest will increase.
Does increased nesting come with increased disease?
Do they breed significantly more when they have found nesting places they are comfortable with, and if so, by what factor?
- adsfgiodsnrio 3y agoI wondered about this myself. Cats don't often attack rats, but rats apparently change their behavior dramatically when cats are around. Just making rats afraid to come out of hiding would surely make them less efficient scavengers and would reduce their population.
