5 Dangerous Diseases Rats Can Bring Into Your Home
Rats in the house can spread LCM, rat bite fever, leptospirosis, hantavirus and plague. See the diseases rats carry and how Cap Gajah glue helps.
Rats live in dirty places like garbage dumps, which makes them one of the animals nobody wants in the house. This rodent also often damages household items and can bring diseases that are dangerous to the body, so you should keep Cap Gajah glue in stock as a solution. What diseases do rats carry when they get into your home?
Dangerous Diseases Carried by Rats
- Lymphocytic Choriomeningitis (LCM)
Never let rats settle in or even visit your home, because they may carry a nasty virus called lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV). Besides rats, who would have guessed that pet rodents such as hamsters can spread it too. If a member of the household is bitten, gets saliva on them, or even touches rat urine, the risk of catching LCM is high.
- Rat Bite Fever (RBF)
RBF is a disease caused by rat bites that leads to infection. When someone has it, the symptoms can be called unusual: vomiting, muscle and joint pain, fever, and even reddish spots on the skin. More dangerous still, the disease can spread to other people through food or drink contaminated with rat saliva.
- Leptospirosis
Leptospirosis is different. It is caused by a bacterial infection when a person has an open wound. Infection can happen when the wound is still healing and accidentally touches a medium such as soil or water that has been contaminated with the urine of this harmful pest. That is why you should have Cap Gajah glue ready before rats get into your home.
- Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome (HPS)
Hantavirus is a disease spread by several kinds of rodents, such as cotton rats, deer mice, rice rats and white-footed mice. It is considered dangerous because the virus can pass to other people through rat urine, saliva and droppings that then become airborne. You can even be infected if you accidentally touch, or even eat, food that rats have contaminated.
- Plague
Plague is a disease spread by rats and is no less dangerous to your health. The bacteria that cause it are carried by fleas that live on the rat's body. When those fleas move onto a human, the bacteria spread the dangerous disease at that moment. Before that happens, get Cap Gajah glue ready to protect everyone in the house from this harmful pest.
