Anyone who’s ever hired a rodent control West Palm Beach expert doesn’t need to be told of how much of nuisance mice and rats can be. Aside from the fact that these pests have the capacity to cause considerable damage to your property, they carry disease-causing pathogens as well. However, you may not know much about how intelligent mice and rats can be.
Did you know that according to research, rat brains are a lot similar to the human brain in terms of structure as well as function? Furthermore, for a long time, people have been thinking that rats were blind. The truth is, rats have advanced vision and processing abilities that allow them to recognize three-dimensional objects even if their size and orientation change. For instance, they can tell if the movie that you’re watching features rats.
You can have a clear idea about rodent intelligence when you learn more about rodent behavior. One example would be how mice communicate with each other through their distinct chirps and squeaks. Some of their vocalizations are extremely high pitched that it would be virtually impossible for humans to hear them. What’s even more interesting is that according to research, mice can sing. Mice can also communicate with each other through pheromones that are present in their urine. Furthermore, it’s not unusual for mice to use body language such as tail drumming to indicate aggression. Another classification of rodents called rats is identified as social creatures that live in communities. These creatures display their own distinct social behaviors in the aspects of grooming, playing, and mating. Rats will not hesitate to exhibit aggression especially toward other rodents that are unfamiliar to them.
