The aim of this work was to examine the possible presence, in the city of Reggio Calabria, of rats resistant to anticoagulant rodenticides. To carry out such an investigation trappings were effected in four sectors of the city characterized by different urban structures. The data collected were utilized, in a first phase, to obtain evaluation indexes of the state of rat infestation which turned out to be quite worrying. Applying the W.H.O. methods it resulted that 8,6% of the captured rats, all belonging to the species Rattus norvegicus, is resistant to anticoagulants. Keeping in mind the sites where these specimens were captured, this resistance phenomenon seems to be present in all the urban territory.
这项工作的目的是调查在雷焦卡拉布里亚市是否可能存在对抗凝血灭鼠剂有抗性的老鼠。为了进行这项调查,在该市具有不同城市结构特征的四个区域进行了诱捕。收集到的数据在第一阶段被用来获得老鼠侵扰状况的评估指标,结果相当令人担忧。应用世界卫生组织的方法得出,所有捕获的老鼠均为褐家鼠,其中8.6%对抗凝血剂有抗性。考虑到捕获这些样本的地点,这种抗性现象似乎在整个城市区域都存在。
