Inside Rat's World: Nests and What They Love to Eat

Rats, those small yet remarkable creatures, have fascinating social behaviors and habits. Let's delve into their world, exploring where they build their nests, what they love to eat, and how you can manage these rodents with the Goodnature A24 rat trap.

Nests: Cozy Spots for Rats

Rats are excellent at finding and creating homes in various environments. They prefer cozy, hidden spots that provide safety and easy access to food. Here are some common nesting locations for rats:

1. Attics and Walls: Roof Rats, in particular, are known for their climbing abilities. They often build nests in attics, walls, and other high places. These locations offer warmth and protection from predators.

2. Burrows: Norway Rats prefer to burrow in the ground. They create extensive tunnel systems with multiple entrances and exits. These burrows are often found near sources of water and food, such as gardens, basements, and under buildings.

3. Stored Items: Rats can also nest in stored items like boxes, old furniture, and clutter. These spaces provide a hidden and undisturbed environment for raising their young.

What Rats Love to Eat

Rats are not picky eaters. They are omnivorous and will consume almost anything available. Here are some of their favorite foods:

1. Scraps: Rats are scavengers and will readily eat food scraps found in garbage bins, compost piles, and kitchen waste. They have a keen sense of smell and can locate food from a distance.

2. Grains and Seeds: Grains, cereals, and seeds are staples in a rat's diet. They are often attracted to stored grain products in pantries, barns, and warehouses.

3. Fruits and Vegetables: Rats enjoy fresh produce, including fruits and vegetables. They can cause significant damage to gardens and crops by eating and contaminating the produce.

4. Pet Food: Rats are attracted to pet food left out for dogs, cats, and other animals. It's important to store pet food in sealed containers to prevent attracting rats.
