There are different ways of controlling rats (Rattus rattus and Rattus norvegicus) and mice (Mus musculus), each with its own advantages and disadvantages. This best practice guide focuses on the animal welfare aspect of the various methods and the integrated approach necessary to achieve animal-fri...
According to the One Health concept, human and animal health are interdependent and connected with the environment in which they coexist. In this context, leishmaniasis is a zoonotic disease that affects humans as well as various wild and domestic mammals. The persistence of the disease in cities, i...
Ekomille trap is an electromechanical and ecological system for the capture of mice and rats. The trap is baited with natural foods without any type of toxic bait and it is able to capture over 80 rodents. In the present work are reported results of field trials carried out to evaluate the Ekomille ...
Cost effective methods are now available to identify physiological resistance in wild populations of Norway rat and House mice that are proving difficult to control. The new molecular methodology is a significant development for resistance management.
The University of Reading has conducted some preliminary work on the prevalence of Campylobacter spp., Salmonella spp. and Arenavirus in Norway rats trapped from farms and semi-urban areas in central southern England. Campylobacter is the cause of a notificable disease in the UK, with 57,772 cases r...
Rats ( Norway rat and roof rat ) and mice are commensal rodents, that is, they live in close association with human. Rodents cause numerous problems such as spread serious diseases, consume or contaminate food supply, carry ectoparasites which potentially spread diseases, start fires and cause great...
Rats on farms live in a stable environment that provides plenty of shelter and high-value food alternatives. Therefore rat control often fails, resulting in long-term infestations that are more difficult to control the longer they resist control attempts, resulting in the demand for professional str...
The impacts of exotic rodent species, particularly the Norway rat (Rattus norvegicus), the ship rat (Rattus rattus), and the house mouse (Mus musculus) on economic, production, health, and conservation values are widely recognised around the world. Developing strategies for the effective management ...
In 1971-72 a large-scale, city-wide campain against Norway rat was carried out by Bábolna Bio in Budapest. The rat infestation rate of premises fell to an average level below 0.5%. Subsequently a complex maintenance program was undertaken. This comprised preventive and curative measures based on dat...
In Europe the Lyme disease spirochetes, B. burgdorferi s.l., are maintained naturally in enzootic cycles involving wildlife reservoirs, such as Clethrionomys glareolus and Apodemus flavicollis, and ixodid tick vectors, primarily Ixodes ricinus. Although the disease is generally associated with fores...
