re: You will never leave the toilet seat up again after seeing this.

couldn't they push the toilet lid up?

Yes. how ever did you know? I sell these snake alarms with AC units. Free if you buy a Trane and 50 year warranty.

How many snake alarms do you need? Blue or Green? The blue ones are for the big snakes. Green ones garter snakes.

Even if the lid was down, the rat could still get out. Even if the lid was sealed, the rat would have chewed through the lid. Most rats can actually chew through metal pipes if they need to survive.

A blue for the big ones

Nah, snakes don't bother me and we only have lid-less urinals at the office.

Rats will chew on anything that is not harder than their teeth. The Mohs Scale, developed by German mineralogist Friedrich Moh in 1812, measures the hardness of gemstones and minerals based on their ability to scratch another gemstone or mineral. The scale ranks from 1 (softest, such as Talc) to 10 (hardest, such as Diamonds). Rat teeth rank about 5.5 on the Mohs Scale, harder than iron or copper. Human tooth enamel only ranks about 5 on the Mohs Scale. Because their teeth are so hard, rats are able to chew through most of the materials people use to keep them out, such as:

Plastic
Wood
Brick
Cement
Lead
Asbestos
Aluminum
Cinder blocks
