it's true that they are afraid of rats, but that's not the main worry. the main thing is that they are disgusted by the little animals because:
they can be very destructive, they can chew through their floors and walls, they chew through their electric cords, they leave their droppings all over the place, they steal their food, and last but not least, they can carry disease.
but undomesticated rats are the ones that carry disease, and destroy your house, unless you let your pet rat run around.
but rats, along with mice, can be very cuddly and neat, if trained to be so. they can also be trained to do tricks, and they can be VERY amusing!
For whatever reason humans are more afraid of rats than of mice. Symptoms of Fear Of Rat: breathlessness, excessive sweating, nausea, dry mouth, shaking, heart palpitations, inability to speak or think clearly, a fear of dying, becoming mad or losing control, a sensation of detachment from reality or a full blown anxiety attack.
Fear Of Rat is an intense fear of something that poses no actual danger. While adults with Fear Of Rat realize that these fears are irrational, they often find that facing, or even thinking about facing, the feared situation brings on a panic attack or severe anxiety.

Rats are scarier than mice for several reasons... 1. They are bigger and scrawlier. Their size is a bit more intimidating. 2. Their eyes and teeth. Rats teeth are larger and most likely sharper; depending how frequently they gnaw on items. As for the eyes, they are sometimes red, which freak some people out. (Especially when they're glowing in movies and such.) 3. Sometimes they seem scarier in comparison to mice. Mice can be sweet and cute. (To some) And mice are sometimes amusing. While rats, well, they aren't the cutest nor the kindest. 4. They tend to bite and are more vicious. (Mice are less likely to nip at people.) By the way, these facts can be different from another persons view, but most probably would see it like this. Hope this helps!
