Rodents … it Seems that without a person they can not live at all, because next to people it is satisfying and warm. Someone manages to get into the house, someone lucky enough to get into the apartment. Others are content with sheds, haystacks, stables. And storage. The cellar and the pantry and beckon them. And yet-the trees in the garden, and left for the winter in the ground roots of parsley and celery (very much want summer residents in the spring to get fresh home greens).
Access to the stern is open, the menu is offered gracious. And what do people from this neighborhood and uninvited guests? How to save potatoes and beets in storage? If all methods of scaring (the most humane ways of getting rid of mice and rats, Ultrasonic rodent repellents) did not bring the desired result — it’s time to resort to the help of modern chemistry.
Methods of rodent control
Our ancestors also suffered from the invasion of rodents. Then ways of dealing were only two: hunting cats and traps (mousetraps). In the house they somehow tried to limit the number of pests in the fields and these opportunities were not.
Now on sale a huge number of different drugs to fight rodents, you can choose and buy a suitable at any time, and not even getting up from the couch.
Rodenticides, classification
There are specialized preparations designed to kill rats — raticide. Can be divided the rodenticides into groups:
- drugs fast actions will cause the death of all the animals quickly: sometimes in a few minutes, sometimes a few days;
- drugs chronic action needs to accumulate in the body: for the destruction of the pest will take several weeks.
It can be divided by origin, by mechanism of action, by preparative forms, by methods of application. We will consider the drugs for active substances.
The fact that the toxic substances themselves are not so much, and allowed for use in the home — even less. The substance can be of different concentrations, which determines the method of use.

Drugs with a high concentration of active substance are allowed to be used only for specialized firms with appropriate permission and trained employees.
Mind and caution as a form of survival
Rats, especially the gray ones, animals are smart, they have a community division by the position of each individual in it. There are suicide bombers, who try any food. If it is good, there are no unpleasant consequences, then the whole population eats it. If there is a rapid death, the rats are able to identify the smells, and not just refuse such treats once, but will not continue to attract them poisoned bait.
