CATDOLL : CATDOLL: Is your chicken farm overrun with rats? Here's how to catch rats scientifically

Chicken farms are a paradise for rats. Rats will steal chicken feed, peck eggs, and even hurt chicks, posing a serious threat to the operation of chicken farms. How to scientifically and efficiently catch rats in chicken farms has become a problem that many chicken farm owners are eager to solve.

Understanding the habits of mice

Before catching mice, it is very important to understand their habits. Mice like to live in dark, humid places with many cracks. Their antennae are very sensitive and they have a good sense of movement nearby. They usually move at night and hide in secluded places during the day. According to the living habits of mice, we can choose the appropriate way to catch them.

Proper placement of traps

Trapping equipment is one of the important tools for catching mice. Common trapping equipment includes mousetraps, plastic boards and electronic mousetraps. In the chicken farm, we can place these equipment reasonably, usually in places where mice often appear, such as feed warehouses, breeding sheds, etc. In order to improve the trapping effect, you can drop a few drops of chicken blood on the bait to attract the attention of mice.

Use biological control methods

Biological control is an environmentally friendly way to control the number of rats by introducing natural enemies. For example, you can plant some plants such as mint and rosemary, the smell they emit has a repellent effect on rats. In addition, you can introduce natural enemies such as cats, which have a natural desire to prey on rats.

Keep the chicken farm clean

Hygiene is an important factor in preventing rats from breeding. Regularly cleaning the chicken coop, removing garbage, and repairing damaged isolation and protection facilities are the basis for controlling rat breeding. In addition, the warehouse where feed is stored should also be kept clean and dry to prevent rats from getting food.

With the help of science and technology

Modern technology provides more options for catching mice. For example, infrared monitoring systems can be used to monitor the movement of mice and take timely measures. Sonic mouse repellents can also be used to emit sounds that are harmful to mice but not to chickens.

Through the above introduction, I hope you can understand how to scientifically catch mice in chicken farms. The following is a summary:

• Understand the habits of mice and choose the appropriate capture method
• Reasonable placement of trapping equipment to improve trapping effect
• Use biological control methods and introduce natural enemies to control the number of rats
• Keep the chicken farm clean, clean the chicken coop, and prevent rats from breeding in the environment
