I'm just glad roof rats, mice and Norway rats no longer carry plague in the US.

Weehaww! Open season on roof rats, mice and Norway rats! Just make certain you cook them to the proper 160 degrees.

Fleas carry plague from rodents to people. That's why I'm glad that the urban rodent pests don't carry it. We'd all be goners!! Most people get plague comes from flea bites.

Rats were traditionally the main source a plague.
