How to kill house mice

Killing rats at home should use physical methods instead of chemical methods. For example, mousetraps and sticky mouse boards are good helpers, and it is also a good way to drive away with tools such as sticks. After being captured, you can drown or pat the mice to death by putting them in water, but be careful not to touch them directly because they have many parasites.

Rats have a good sense of smell, and food 30 meters away can lead them there. Leftovers, garbage and fruits are its favorites. Many families are used to putting fruits on the table and leftovers on the dining table with a cover. These are not desirable ways. It is best to put all the food in the refrigerator, cupboard and jar to cut off the food chain of mice.

Rats will leave without food sources, so they should manage their own food at home and not be exposed to the air. Close the doors and windows and block the holes and holes in the pipes. Generally speaking, a mousetrap can be installed at a proper position in the gas pipeline, and many mice enter the home through the gap in the gas pipeline.

Extended data:

Rats are common rodents, with different sizes. In China, there are about 170 species of rodents. Among them, we can often see or come into contact with rodents such as Rattus norvegicus and houseflies, and wild rats such as voles. Another kind of mouse that we often come into contact with is a pet mouse: hamster.

Compared with cats and dogs, mice carry more bacteria and viruses, which can spread epidemic hemorrhagic fever, rat bite fever, scrub typhus, tetanus, leptospirosis and other diseases. Among them, epidemic hemorrhagic fever is the most serious, and rat bite fever is not uncommon.

Mouse bites rarely cause rabies, but rarely does not mean that there is no rabies at all. There are many cases of rabies caused by mouse bites. Therefore, not only cats and dogs, but also mice should immediately treat wounds and inject rabies vaccine.

After being bitten by a mouse, you should first wash the wound with clear water or soapy water to squeeze out the blood from the wound. The wound should be open and not bandaged. If the wound is deep or large, you should go to the hospital to clean and disinfect the wound in time and carry out anti-tetanus treatment (tetanus antitoxin). At the same time, you need to use antibiotics to prevent common bacterial infections in wounds.

Another serious disease caused by rat bite is epidemic hemorrhagic fever, which is characterized by fever, systemic bleeding tendency, nephritis, shock and other symptoms. The condition is serious and even life-threatening. Therefore, people bitten by rats must be vaccinated against epidemic hemorrhagic fever in time. The vaccine is usually inoculated with two injections on the 0 th and 14 th, and one injection can be strengthened if necessary.

At present, there is no suitable vaccine for diseases caused by rat bite fever, scrub typhus, leptospirosis or typhus, but if you are really infected with these diseases, don't worry too much, because there are good specific drugs to treat, as long as you diagnose and treat them in time, you can be cured soon.
