Rats can carry some diseases. If you are bitten by a rat, you need to take appropriate treatment measures in time to avoid infection and deterioration. Here’s how to deal with first aid after being bitten by a rat:


1. Clean the wound in time: rinse and disinfect it repeatedly with warm water and soap or iodine to remove bacteria and dirt on the wound surface.


2. Handle bleeding: For minor bleeding, use cotton swabs or gauze to apply gentle pressure to stop bleeding; for severe bleeding or unstoppable bleeding, timely medical treatment is required.


3. Observe the wound: Pay attention to the wound for signs of infection, such as fever, swelling, pain, etc., and also pay attention to other parts of the body for symptoms of discomfort.


4. Seek medical treatment: If the bite is serious, the wound is deep, or there are signs of infection, you need to go to the hospital in time and receive treatment according to the doctor's instructions.


It should be noted that prevention is the best method. Regular hygiene and cleaning work should be done to reduce the chances of rats breeding in the home. At the same time, when using rat poison, sticky boards and other prevention tools, you should also be careful to avoid causing harm to people and pets to avoid accidents.
