Those habitats include houses, gardens, farms, roadsides, garbage dumps, and so on. The category of synanthrope includes many species regarded as pests. It does not include domesticated animals such as cattle, honeybees, pets, poultry, silkworms, and working animals.Examples of synanthropes are various insect species (lice, ants, silverfish, cockroaches, et.), house sparrows, rock doves (pigeons), various rodent species, Virginia opossums, raccoons, certain monkey species, coyotes, urban ferals, and other urban wildlife. The brown rat is counted as one of the most prominent synanthropic animals and can be found in almost every place there are people. Rats benefit from living alongside humans.
