As a homeowner there are many steps that you can take to keep your chances of getting unwanted visitors like rats, that include:

Major Rat Issues
- Some of the more important diseases associated with rats include rat-bite-fever and leptospirosis.
- Rats will transmit the disease directly by contaminating food with their feces or urine. They can also transmit indirectly; for example, when fleas first bite an infected rat, then a person.
- Rats' presence can be fairly inconspicuous in buildings, so it's important to call a professional rat removal company to make sure you've addressed the whole problem.

These include improving sanitation, getting rid of hiding places, excluding rats and occasionally using necessary tools such as traps and rodenticides.
