"Rats can produce up to 12 to 16 milliliters (more than 2 teaspoons – more than 1 tablespoon) of urine and50 fecal droppings in a 24-hour period. Contamination of stored foods with rodent feces and urine may transmit disease to both humans and pets. These contaminated foods may carry diseases such as cryptosporidiosis, toxoplasmosis, leptospirosis, salmonellosis, and listeriosis. In addition to causing disease, contamination from rat urine and droppings increases spoilage and renders foods inedible. Rats have also been implicated in the transmission of several other helminths (worms) and bacterial, rickettsial, protozoal, and viral infections in other parts of the world. Rat lice, mites, and fleas can also infest other animals and, occasionally, people." (From the N. I. H. ) 2 #49483 $25
