Abstract

The purpose of this review was to analyze the impact of rodents on human economic activity and human health, the dangers and harm they pose. The article provides brief information about the migration of rodents and their impact on crop yields and possible crop losses. The harmful effects of these small mammals on the livestock, poultry and beekeeping industries are described. The issue of transmission and reservation of diseases by rodents that pose a danger to humans and their domestic animals is considered. The influence of factors on the distribution and dynamics of rodent populations, and the use of modern methods for monitoring the population of areas of the territory are analyzed. Thus, the use of unmanned aerial vehicles (UAVs) and image processing software makes it possible to detect and analyze clusters of rodent burrows, as well as control more targeted processing. When using rodenticides to control rodents, people still face certain questions and problems in regulating populations and effectively using rodenticides, taking into account the negative impact on the environment.
