We solve your rodent problem forever, by following these steps:

• Inspect the entire house, ground to roof, and the attic

• When necessary, we clean rodent droppings, replace insulation, and repair chewed electric wires

Tulsa Rodent Removal Tip:

Do Rats Feel Pain?
Like all animals, rats can feel pain. As mammals, they have nervous systems equivalent to humans, albeit with specific differences. Therefore, they also have pain receptors and nerves capable of directly transporting the information from these receptors to the rat's brain. 

According to a study published in Applied Animal Behavior Science, if tickled or handled playfully, rats will better endure medical procedures. In contrast, when handled roughly or without compassion, the same rats fought against the procedure, displaying significantly more anxiety. 

How do rats show pain?
If someone puts a pin into your hand, you don't just feel the pain internally. You show it. Your face might scrunch up; you might scream or exclaim. Rats are no different. From experiments, we have learned that when in discomfort, the rat's eyes narrow, their ears become flattened, their cheeks will puff up, and their nose will swell. 

What was even more incredible was what happened when other rats saw.

Further experimentation found that rats experienced a deep empathetic connection to their fellow rodent's pain. These reactions weren't merely a physiological response. There was an evident ability to read visual cues and respond accordingly. 

What causes rats to feel another's pain?
Demonstrating empathy towards another when in pain isn't an exclusively human trait. In fact, many mammals display similar behaviors: rats amongst them.

Research from the Netherlands discovered that specific neurons – the cells that make up our nervous system – were active both when the rat experienced pain and when the rat observed another in distress. These so-called emotional mirror neurons were only able to respond to the pain of others and not fear. 

But the effects of empathy in rats goes far beyond pain.

Rodents often communicate with each other using high-pitched squeaks that humans are unable to hear. Moreover, they also form families and become emotionally attached to their kin. They take care of each other and express sympathy to the rat in pain. In some of these rodents, unable to tolerate the other's pain, they turn and flee.

Even more impressive, if you remove rats from their social support system – their friends and family members – they seem to experience sadness and longing. They will display great distress and often die upon being relocated. Rats don't like living alone. They're social creatures, just like us.

Implications for people
Beyond pure scientific curiosity, what does all this mean for humans?

Despite these incredible findings, rats remain significant vectors of disease. If allowed to breed, they can and will overrun an area, with females capable of producing hundreds of babies in a year. 

However, considering the high level of pain they feel, prolonging their agony should never be tolerated. Killing rats should be quick and harmless. Therefore, glue traps are a profoundly unethical method of rat removal, leaving the rat to starve and struggle for hours before being discovered. Snap traps do offer a much higher rate of success, and death is instantaneous. Though sometimes snap traps miss and only maim the rat, leading to a long and painful death. Electrocution traps are by far the best, delivering an enormous shock that guarantees a quick death.

Meanwhile, those who prefer to relocate rats should be wary of the outcome. Though it might seem more humane, the reality is that you are taking a rat far from its family and increasing the risk of being eaten by a predator. The success rate for rats after release is extremely low.

Considering the various factors, we must choose rat removal methods that aim to cause the least harm while still being effective.
