You just keep those down there in Texas with ya! I have enough issues with tiny field mice!We have rats that weigh 20 pounds or more. They are huge and the first time someone sees one they are SHOCKED. The good news is that they don't mess with people or our things much and live in the swamps. The only people and places where they are a problem are rice farmers because they will mess up the levees that flood and drain the rice fields. They have a bounty on them and pay people to kill them. They are not native species and are considered invasive so have no protection.
