This last July 2017 was the 391th consecutive month with average global temperatures higher than the average for the 20th century. Global warming is normally thought of as creating greater numbers of extreme events including droughts, floods and storms damage crops and can cause food shortages. Flooding and other major climatic events are the highly visible effects of extremes in weather that are likely to increase with global warming. Even slight changes in temperatures can have a dramatic effect on the geographical area opening new areas to pests and diseases. Rodents are major urban pests in both buildings and in agricultural areas. They carry many diseases by being reservoirs (carriers) themselves and from the parasites that they carry, such as fleas, which also carry a number of human diseases. Rodent populations benefit from warm wet winters and springs, populations will increase if these conditions become more common. We are well aware of all the problems caused by rats, mice and squirrels.
