Sob!!Euuhhhh....5th floor rats have further up and getting bolder!! This is really the first time in my life to see rat in an apartment! Thought the days of the rats running in homes are gone...Disinfect disinfect!!Hi monsieurlee I found out that the rat you mentioned in your earlier posts, is also known as the sewer rat. My BIL (who works in a pest control company) told me that even cats are afraid of this kind of rat. In order for the rat not to come back again, in case it finds that someone has invaded their territory, it's best to remove any trace of their scent (their own urine, faeces, fur, nest, etc.) from all the floors and walls with diluted bleach (with detergent) solution, as soon as possible. I was told that its urine can affect one's health, due to the bacteria. And if someone is bitten by such rat, better straightaway go to doctor to get rabies & tetanus shot. Look out for dirt markings on the wall, approx. the height of the rat. Follow the lines and it will lead to where it nests. Usually this kind of rat is very garang one, and has the ability to climb up the electrical risers and sewer pipes.
