Some neighborhood residents have reported seeing these normally
nocturnal wood rats during daylight hours. This is a sign of large
numbers. These rats live in wood piles and the like and feed off seed
and whatever else they can find - including what you put out for birds
and pets. Talk to your neighbors and if your neighborhood is affected,
coordinate with others to control this with a unified effort. This
species can reproduce monthly with litters of up to 20 - so don't wait.<br></p><p><cite></cite></p><p>9. JohnB The
