Rats may carry a few diseases but so can stray cats and dogs. Rats do not carry rabies as some may suggest and there have been no known cases of this reported in North America. Rats have been kept as pets for centuries and pet rats are very friendly and intelligent. The majority of the population hates rats but this is based on misinformation and ignorance.

Can you catch mono from mice infestation?

No, you cannot catch mononucleosis (often called "mono") from a mice infestation. Mono is primarily spread through saliva, often through kissing or sharing drinks. While mice can carry diseases, mono is not one of them, as it is caused by the Epstein-Barr virus, which is specific to humans. Therefore, the risk of contracting mono from mice is nonexistent.
