Rats are social animals and can communicate with their selves through the smell of their urine. If you do not trap and relocate them as soon as possible, they might soon invade your Georgia house in large quantity. Four topics relocated to trapping a rat would be discussed below. They include:

Relocation to Where it can Survive

Relocation to Where it would Die

Properly Seal Off Your Georgia House

Relocation to Where it can Survive
If you do not want the rat to die off, you can relocate them very far away from your home. Rats can recognize where they have lived before by just smelling their urine in the place. Thus, it is important to relocate them to over 10 miles from your home. It is best to do this after dark as they have poor vision at night.

Relocation to Where it would Die
If you want the rat to die but don't want to kill it yourself, you can relocate it to where it won't survive. Rats can survive in most environments. However, as warm-blooded animals, they won't survive in a very cold environment. You can consider areas where snow falls.

Find Out How They Get into Your Athens-Clarke Home
You should immediately check how they got into your home. Locate all the weak points. If this is not done, other rats will notice a rat have lived in your house before and find their way in.

Properly Seal Off Your House
Seal off every hole and other weak points that Georgia rat can exploit to get into your house. This will ensure that the same rat (in the event you didn't kill it) or other rats will not find their way to your house once more.
