Navigating the Challenges of Roof Rats
Silent Invaders: Navigating the Presence of Roof Rats in Your Living Spaces
The silent invaders known as roof rats can disrupt the tranquility of your living spaces. These rodents are highly adaptable, making them versatile climbers and adept at finding shelter both inside and under buildings, as well as in piles of rubbish or wood.
Social Hierarchy and Omnivorous Habits
In dense populations, roof rats establish a social hierarchy, with dominant males having more mating opportunities. While they have a preference for fruits and nuts, earning them the monikers “fruit rat” or “citrus rat,” roof rats are omnivorous and will consume a wide range of food, including tree bark, meat, and grain. These resourceful rodents are also known for their food hoarding tendencies, stockpiling supplies like seeds and nuts.
