Whilst some people love rats and keep them as pets (they can be very affectionate, we are told!), for many they are objects of horror and terror. There is a widely held myth that there as many rats as there are people in cities but this depends upon the climate. For example the rat population of New York is only estimated to be about 250,000 because of the cold winters. It is true, though, that a UK survey in 2003 estimated that the population of these rodents in the UK is about 60 million, about the same number as there are people. They have had a lot of bad press through the years, blamed for carrying disease, and featured in horror stories and films. Someone with a fear or phobia or these creatures may well have ‘learned’ their terror response from a movie; they may have learned to be scared of rats because one their parents were terrified; they may have simply suddenly been surprised by the unexpected appearance of a rat. The truth of the matter is that it does not matter where, when and how the person became phobic as the cause of the fear is irrelevant to the cure.
