What are Rodents

Rodents

Are believed to have lived at least 56 millions years and the modern humans for less than one million. However, rodents and humans share virtually the same set of genes. The interaction between rodents and humans has been found that rodents found humans as a reliable source of shelter and food for those species and having the abilities to adjust with human habitats and they are way smarter than we think they are. They cause direct damages to crop and commodities by gnawing or feeding and may also cause indirect damage by spoilage, contamination hoarding during pre and post-harvesting stages.
