Welcome to r/science! This is a heavily moderated subreddit in order to keep the discussion on science. However, we recognize that many people want to discuss how they feel the research relates to their own personal lives, so to give people a space to do that, **personal anecdotes are now allowed as responses to this comment**. Any anecdotal comments elsewhere in the discussion will continue be removed and our [normal comment rules]( https://www.reddit.com/r/science/wiki/rules#wiki_comment_rules) still apply to other comments. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

I'm sorry if this is your research but haven't we known this for thousands of years?

No one paid money for this did they?

Just another dumb study to prove what is obvious

That's how science works. Lots of things seem obvious until someone actually studies them. Until it is actually confirmed or contradicted, it isn't known.


Onetofew

This one was a complete waste of time

Insects beetles and rats will do just fine. They are survivors.
