Are wooden houses suitable for rats?

Until recently, wood was not compatible with rats. This is because rats leave small puddles on the interior of their enclosure. This is a way of marking their territory. The puddles are easy to wash off plastic, but with wood it was more difficult. Fortunately, there are now tools that can help with this. There are special urine removers available that neutralize and remove urine in "no time". Spray a little urine spray on the spot where the urine is on the wood and let the product do its work. TIP : CSI Urine Spray and Urine Buster .

Are Terracotta Houses Suitable for Rats?

Terracotta has an open structure. This is not particularly useful for small puddles because it can quickly soak into the material. The urine spray can also provide a solution here. The great advantage of terracotta houses is the abrasive effect on the nails. If the animals walk over them, the nails wear down quite easily. The houses are also cool in the summer.

Are Resin Houses Suitable for Rats?

This is a type of material that has blown over from reptiles to rodents. A very beautiful material that is easy to clean.

Houses made of synthetic resin (polystyrene) can be beautifully shaped in a rock, tree trunk, etc. Very nice for a naturally furnished residence.

Which houses are suitable for Rats in the summer?

Rats are social animals that like to sleep together. Especially in the summer, this can get hot for the animals. Nowadays, there are cooling houses available for the animals that do not make the temperature rise too high and provide cooling on hot days. In this way, the animals can lie together and do not get too hot. Cool materials are for example aluminum and terracotta. But houses made of grass/reed are also ideal for the summer because of the good ventilation.

How big should a house for Rats be?

Rats need at least one larger house where they can hide together. How big this house needs to be depends on the size of the group. The personal preferences of the animals also play a big role. One Rat would prefer to always hang in the sputnik while the other rat would rather sleep in a small cozy house.

Can a willow bridge be used as a house for rats?

Yes, that is also possible! A willow bridge can be used as a bridge, tunnel and sleeping house. The last option makes the willow bridge a fairly open house, ideal for the summer! The larger the willow bridge, the larger the sleeping house. For extra variation, the bridge can be used one time as a sleeping house and the next time as a bridge or tunnel. This way, the interior also remains surprising for the animals.
