In addition to being unhygienic animals, they can cause serious health problems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you are looking for a homemade and effective solution to get rid of these rodents, in this article we present a method based on simple ingredients: peanuts, sugar and a candle.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\" id=\"attachment_41934\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"538\" src=\"https:\/\/www.grandmothers-recipes.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-106-1024x538.webp\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-18038\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.grandmothers-recipes.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-106-1024x538.webp 1024w, https:\/\/www.grandmothers-recipes.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-106-300x157.webp 300w, https:\/\/www.grandmothers-recipes.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-106-768x403.webp 768w, https:\/\/www.grandmothers-recipes.top\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/image-106.webp 1143w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Image by: Mr. Creator<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Rats are not only annoying, but they are also carriers of diseases that can be dangerous to humans.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">These rodents can transmit diseases such as leptospirosis, bubonic plague, hantavirus, and Lassa fever, to name just a few.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, their urine and feces contaminate food and surfaces, increasing the risk of contracting these diseases. That&#8217;s why it&#8217;s crucial to keep our home rat-free.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"Como_matar_a_las_ratas_que_estan_en_tu_hogar\">How to Kill Rats in Your Home<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Ingredients<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>2 tbsp. Peanut<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 tbsp. Sugar<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>1 candle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>Preparation<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Grind a piece of candle into a &#8220;powder&#8221;.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>In a separate bowl, grind the peanuts until they have a sandy consistency.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add the tablespoon of sugar to the ground peanuts and mix well.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Add the piece of ground candle to the previous mixture and continue mixing until you get a homogeneous mixture.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once the mixture is obtained, place it in a container and place it near places where you have seen rats or where you suspect they may walk.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The combination of sugar and peanuts acts as a powerful attractant for these rodents, while the ground candle will be lethal to them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Getting rid of rats is essential to maintaining a healthy environment in our home. With this homemade method, you can not only eliminate these annoying intruders, but you can also do it in an economical way and without the need to resort to chemicals that can be harmful to our health and that of our pets.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">However, it is important to mention that this method, although effective, does not replace prevention and cleaning measures to avoid the appearance of rats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you had any problems with the preparation, I recommend you watch the video of&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/@mrmaker.\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Mr. Creator<\/a>&nbsp;that explains it perfectly:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"MAGIC CANDLE || How To Kill Rats Within 10 minutes || Home Remedy || Magic Ingredient | Mr. Maker\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/NqMUQwZ1-Ks?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Living with the presence of rats in our home or surroundings can become a real nightmare.
