Rats do not live off grass. If you have them, there's some sort of food source on your or your neighbors property.

Or, like, insects.

They don't live off grass but long grass is great cover for them to move freely. My lawn is pretty wild, but I have to mow directly around the house otherwise mice and all sort of insects start taking up reaidence in the house.
