Rats have poor eyesight but great hearing and smell. Over decades, rats have adapted to be very wary of humans; rats breed and reproduce at alarming rates, and like birds, are excellent disease carriers, so they have been exterminated and feared by humans for a long time.
Even my own pet rat is cautious when I feed him new treats. They are definitely smart enough to learn to avoid poisons and traps. I have even noticed how difficult it was to recapture my rat when he was an adolescent and he escaped.
Poisons and traps are still used to rid homes of rats, and they are still effective; however, rats in particular can often cause problems when people need to get rid of wild rats, because of their ability to learn.
