Rats and mice belong to the rodents. Because of our own

rodents will come and eat the leftovers.
Generally rodents have very sharp teeth, and they can cause
several types of damage:
- material damage (broken package or half eaten pipes
and cables)
- damage to public health
- rats and mice can be infected with several diseases

transfer easily those diseases and stored food will get
