hi LH
I include below a paragraph from the "rat Dept" of our Local Council.
""Rats
In medieval times the black ship rat bought fleas carrying bubonic plague to England. But 200 years on we now have the brown or sewer rat.
They do not carry the plague but spread Leptospirosis, Salmonella food poisoning, Typhus, Trichinosis and Tapeworms.""
This doesn't sound like harmless to me !!
Cheers
