How Do Rats Work?
Rats have a complex lifestyle. They can survive on as little as an ounce of food a day. They are often attracted to buildings and people and adapt well to their new surroundings. They like to feed around homes, restaurants, and private yards. They are even known to eat out of trash bags, cans, and the community refuse disposal. They will also find shelter in tall weeds, walls, and rubbish piles.
Rats also cause significant damage. Not only do they chew up electrical wiring, but they can also damage structures. They can also carry numerous diseases that can be harmful to humans. Therefore, it is important to understand how these pests operate and how to protect your property from them. However, you can’t assume that a rat is safe from infection.
Although RATs are effective in detecting positive cases, they don’t have a 100% accuracy rate. They miss as much as 20 percent of cases. The most common cases that RATs miss are those who are asymptomatic but have a low viral load. If a person has a high viral load, the RAT will not pick up on their presence, but the infection can still be spread to others.
RATs use the “failure to appear” and “rearrest” rates as proxies to measure pretrial “failure.” This allows the system to predict the probability of a person showing up for court or being arrested again. But it is important to note that RATs don’t take into account an individual’s circumstances. For instance, if the person was arrested on a violent charge, the RAT will likely flag the individual as a violent criminal.
