Abstract

Objective Study the application of infrared?triggered cameras in rodent density surveillance. Methods We used infrared?triggered cameras to surveillant the rodent density. At the same time, we used glue board and rat trap to catch mice.Results Glue board and rat trap could catch most of the mice at first. But the remaining ones mostly avoided them. Infrared?triggered cameras filmed the photo and video of the reaction of the remaining rodents to glue board and rat clip. Conclusion Rodents did not avoid the infrared?triggered cameras. Infrared?triggered cameras filmed the activities of rodents. Video provided more information than photo and gave us more help in deratization. Infrared?triggered cameras is a good method in rodent density surveillance.
