According to Australian media reports, New South Wales, Australia, has not only been hit by heavy rains and floods in recent days, but serious rat infestations have also appeared in many places. Since the grain was recovered from the fields, the number of rats in the fields has continued to increase, and now it has reached a terrifying level. At night, rats scurry around in groups outside, and the number is so large that the farmer feels that the ground is covered with water. During the movement, according to the video taken, rats on the ground at night were swarming around like locusts passing through. Rats are running around in swarms
Not long ago, an Australian farmer named Harry Gaynor uploaded a video. The video showed that near the village of Collie where he was, rats were overrun at night. It was a disaster. Hundreds of rats were chirping and swarming across the road unscrupulously. It was terrifying. The large number of rats are not afraid of humans at all. They have no intention of hiding under the strong light. They are just looking for food everywhere. Obviously, they don't pay attention to humans when there are many of them. Just thinking about this scene, it makes you wonder. It makes people feel bad. A farmer said after going out at night that there were indeed too many rats, and he had the impression that the entire ground was moving. I hope the mice will drown in the holes
There are so many mice outside the house, not to mention people's homes. It is said that there are mice in the beds and cabinets at home. When people sleep at night, the mice will come out of the bed. ran through. The excessive number of rats has had a great impact on the normal life of the local people. The unique smell of the dead rats is irresistible. People hate rats but there is nothing they can do because there are indeed too many rats. Some People have voluntarily carried out trapping and direct killing of rats, but the effect is not obvious. Many people look at the heavy rains that have fallen in recent days and hope that the mice will drown in the burrows. Of course, this idea is also unrealistic, because mice are famous for their tenacious ability to survive and cannot be easily eliminated by nature. The reason why there are so many rats
The reason why there are so many rats in Australia this time is inseparable from the extremely strong reproductive ability of rats and the bumper harvest of local crops. A pair of local mice can breed five to six hundred mice in one season. In addition, Australia's large harvest of grains and crops this year has provided more food sources for mice. Therefore, the survival rate of mice is very high, and most of them are concentrated. Crop growing areas in rural areas. Of course, Australia has already adapted to rat plagues. They had major rat plagues in the 1980s and 1990s. This rat plague is not easy to solve.
