The attempts of killing rodents are making them evolve at super speed.
Genetic mutation has produced a new breed of rodents called ‘super rats’ with DNA which protects the rodent from standard toxins. Rats can, therefore, withstand the poison meant to kill them.
They are larger than average rodents which are sometimes even bigger than cats.
Some local authorities have reported a 10 percent increase in rodent numbers since last year.
The animals are known for carrying diseases that can be dangerous to humans and are becoming increasingly resistant to poison.

Rats ‘immune to poison’ could invade homes to feast on Xmas leftovers after lockdown breeding boom

RATS that are immune to poison could invade homes across the UK over Christmas and New Year after a breeding boom during lockdown.
Experts have warned that Christmas rubbish and food waste could tempt hungry vermin into homes to feast on leftover turkey and gather discarded wrapping paper.
An expert from Pest.co.uk said vermin are now attempting to infiltrate homes as there is less food waste from pubs and cafes due to strict Tier restrictions across the country.
Data shows how the rat population surged by 25 per cent during lockdown as swathes of pest controllers warned back in summer how the nationwide lockdown created a “perfect storm” for a rat population boom.
Deserted urban areas and an increase in residential food waste during lockdown saw the UK’s rat population skyrocket to a horrific 180 million – that’s 2.2 rats for every one person in Britain.
And with Brits confined to their homes, people took matters into their own hands – leaving out rat poison for the creatures rather than calling in the professionals, Pest.co.uk experts theorised.

Resistant ‘super rats’ are breeding in the UK

A new survey will compile data to establish the extent to which resistance is understood and what methods farmers are using to control rodent infestations.
Research published by the University of Reading Vertebrate Pests Unit (VPU) suggests that resistance is spreading due to the use of anticoagulants containing the actives bromadiolone and difenacoum.By using products that are ineffective on resistant rodents, farmers are only killing rodents that have no resistance. This is leaving resistant rodents to breed with each other, which is causing numbers to increase rapidly.
The survey is being supported by BASF to raise awareness of resistance and compile fresh data about the use of rodenticides on farms throughout the UK.
