Do rats bite humans in their sleep?
If you were to disturb a rat, or to corner it, it would more than likely attack you. This is because it has no
where else to run - you have it cornered. This would most definitely be the case if you had a rat in a cage. If
the only way is to lash out at you, that's just what the rat will do. It’s probably a female rat, and her babies
are probably in a nest somewhere in your home.
Rats probably won’t bite you in your sleep, that's the truth of the matter. If the rat was in the bed with you and you
rolled over and accidentally squished it, yes, it would probably bite. But that’s a rare occasion. Rats want to keep away
from humans. Humans are much bigger predators to these tiny rodents.
Although they can be quite vicious little critters, there’s a much bigger chance that the rat wants to run away than stay and
fight you. That’s a last case scenario - the last tool the creature has at its disposal, and it will only use those sharp teeth
and claws as and when necessary. If it’s quicker to run away and scamper down a hole, that's what the rat would prefer.
That being said, rats are wild creatures, and all wild creatures are definitely one thing - unpredictable. You cannot tell from
looking at a rat whether or not it is sick or diseases. You can't tell whether or not it will fly at you or run away. That’s why
we would always recommend proceeding with extreme caution if you are dealing with a rat problem by yourself, rather than calling
in the professionals.
