Remember that the Hanta virus is in a large portion of the rodent population. If you are not careful about grain storage etc, then you will most likely have these uninvited guests. They can be much more of a danger than people realize. There are parts of California Parks that are put off limits on rare occasions because the black death (bubonic plague has been found in the rodent population. I have no intent of sounding doom and gloom but these little furry creatures can have turn your success into failure if caution is not observed. I grew up on a farm and they breed incredibly fast. There is also a warning for South American travelers. Bat droppings are also dangerous but mice are more common, if you must clean up an area where mice have been it is best to make sure there is lots of air flow and if possible dampen the area to prevent air borne dust. Probably one of the most dangerous to deal with other than bats. I picked up an infection when I did some renovations on my home, yes there was evidence of mouse infestation. So caution is advised.

I lived in the rural area of New Mexico where hanta virus first erupted, and it's presence to this day is held under suspicion as to it's cause. Personally, due to my distrust of the NWO, I suspect also that it was another "invented" pathogen used, but failed, to diminish the population in the southern US. The disease, however devastating to it's human host, is usually merciful in it's timing; it kills quickly within short days affecting first the respiratory system and then all other body functions. It's a real killer and still surfaces here and there, but mostly in the southwestern US and appears that some want to put the blame on the native Americans living under conditions in an environment where mice flourish in large numbers. After all these centuries of continued arid conditions why suddenly the appearance of an unexplainable killer?
