Summary "Methods of Destroying Rats" by David E. Lantz is a scientific publication issued as Farmers' Bulletin No. 297 by the U.S. Department of Agriculture in the early 20th century. The book addresses the significant problem of rat infestations, specifically focusing on the brown or Norway rat as a major pest causing considerable economic damage and spreading diseases. The text provides practical guidance for farmers, households, and urban dwellers seeking effective methods for rat control. The book outlines various strategies for rat eradication, including the use of poisons, traps, ferrets, and fumigation techniques. Lantz emphasizes the need for persistent action and reviews several poison types, detailing their effectiveness and application methods. He also discusses the importance of constructing rat-proof buildings and recognizes the role of natural predators in controlling rat populations. Ultimately, Lantz advocates for a comprehensive and cooperative approach to rat control, aiming to minimize both the economic losses and public health risks associated with these rodents.
