Rodent Prevention in Agricultural Storage

Its printed title: Integrated Structural and Biological Strategies for Rodent Exclusion in Agricultural Storage Systems

Keeping rats and mice out of grain stores and cellars by building them out rather than relying on cats. It tables how fast the common species breed, explains why a rat's incisors go through wood, foam and aluminium, and lists the materials that stop them, among them concrete and galvanised mesh. It reports a 2018 study in which cats made two kills in 79 days, and warns that cats fouling stored feed pass toxoplasma to pregnant sheep and goats. Bite forces come in pounds per square inch.
