The number of bacteria in mice depends on the living environment, and there are more bacteria in mice in cities than in mountains. Because the environment of urban mice is generally in sewers, and the bacteria of mountain mice are relatively small.
Because mice live in dark and humid places all the year round, there are many viruses in their hair and feces, among which Hantavirus is a typical one, and there will be residues on things that naturally crawl. If you continue to eat, it may lead to various diseases, so it is safer to throw away the contaminated things directly.
The harm of rats:
1, spreading diseases
The harm of rats to human health includes spreading diseases, biting and harassing. Among them, the spread of disease is the most important. Rats can spread the pathogens of diseases that can be infected by both humans and mice to people through different channels, making people sick. For example, fleas on rats can spread Yersinia pestis to people by biting rats suffering from plague and then biting people; There is epidemic hemorrhagic fever virus in the excrement of mice, which can be infected if people touch it carelessly.
In addition, rats will contaminate food, articles and furniture with their infected pathogens in dirty places, thus spreading pathogens to people. The harm of rat bites cannot be ignored. Thousands of people are bitten by rats every year. Although there are few reports of direct harassment by rats, once it happens, it will affect rest and reduce the quality of life and work efficiency.
2. Food consumption hurts farmers.
All kinds of cereals are the favorite food of mice, whether it is farmland, grain depot, supermarket or house, they are all places where they steal to eat. Rats are foraging for food during the whole growth period of crops, and when it is serious, the particles are not harvested.
