According to Michel Tibayrenc's Encyclopedia of Infectious Diseases, the first mention of the iconic plague doctor is found during the 1619 plague outbreak in Paris, in a biography of royal physician Charles de Lorme, serving King Louis XIII of France at the time. History Īn early reference to plague doctors wearing masks is in 1373 when Johannes Jacobi recommends the use of masks, but offers no physical description of the masks themselves. Plague doctors were known as municipal or "community plague doctors", whereas "general practitioners" were separate doctors and both might be in the same European city or town at the same time. In France and the Netherlands, plague doctors often lacked medical training and were referred to as " empirics". Plague doctors rarely cured patients, instead serving to record death tolls and the number of infected people for demographic purposes. In one case, a plague doctor was a fruit salesman before his employment as a physician. In many cases these doctors were not experienced and trained physicians or surgeons, instead being volunteers, second-rate doctors, or young doctors just starting a career. Some plague doctors were said to charge patients and their families additional fees for special treatments or false cures. Plague doctors had a mixed reputation, with some citizens seeing their presence as a warning to leave the area or that death was near. ![]() These physicians were hired by cities to treat infected patients regardless of income, especially the poor that could not afford to pay.

Fast-acting poisons work right away, but we found that other rats may catch on and learn to avoid these baits. This is because the rodent may carry the poison back to its friends, thinking that it’s sharing a meal. ![]() While slow-acting poisons take days to kill rodents, they can usually kill more. Larger pieces of bait are sometimes known as bait stations. Larger pieces, such as blocks, chunks, and bars, may be slightly easier to set up and less messy. Ultimately, there is little difference between these forms and there’s no best way to eliminate rats. ![]() Rat poisons that we found were available in block, chunk, nugget, seed, and bar forms. Our research shows that none of these options are painless deaths, so if that’s something you’re conscious of, you may want to look into other ways of killing rats, such as snap traps. Anticoagulants cause internal bleeding, which leads to death once the rat loses too much blood. Meanwhile, calcium releasers increase the total amount of calcium in a rat’s bloodstream, causing its organs to shut down. Acute toxins release a small amount of poison into the rodent’s bloodstream until it builds up to a lethal dose. The main types of rat poisons include acute toxins, calcium releasers, and anticoagulants. To narrow down your search for the best rat killer, we put together the most important factors for you to consider before making a purchase. Rat poison is a useful and easy way to get rid of rats. Critically, we did see some users that said the bars smelled foul and were overpriced given the other rat poison options on the market. Users also enjoyed a rodent-free home long after the bait was deployed and consumed, so the product had a long-lasting effect for them. Overall, we found that most customers gave these bait blocks a four- or five-star review, claiming that the bars were effective in getting rid of their rodent problem. ✘ Only for use in and around agricultural buildings What Customers Are Saying ✔ Effective against warfarin-resistant Norway rats ✔ Takes effect in four to five days, so there’s no risk of bait shyness ✔ Rodents can easily consume a lethal dose in a single night’s feeding The pack of rat poison comes with eight long-lasting bars containing bromadiolone, which we liked can be placed exactly where rodent activity is suspected.

And then there are others that are somewhere in between.Įspecially when there's dialogue in fiction there should be at least some change in inflection so that the listener knows someone new is speaking. Then there are some that are just straightforward nonfiction that may not require voices at all. Some of the audiobooks we record at Listening Books, like the Murderous Maths series, benefit from really exaggerated, cartoon-like character voices. Should I do voices for all the different characters?Īgain, this is really dependent on the book (sorry!). If there are lots of characters then you'll need to keep pretty organised notes. This is also when you'll want to make character choices. Plus you need to note dialogue that isn't clearly tagged (is Harry or Sally speaking here?) and for sneaky descriptors that come after the fact - like "Come here," she hissed.Īll these things will need to be marked up in your text as you prep so that you don't get into the studio and start yelling, "COME HERE!" she hiss.oh. Yes please! You'll want to check for any words or names you don't know how to pronounce and research those for a start. If it takes that long to record, do I have to read the whole book before I start recording? On average, though, a typical novel of about 100,000 words takes four pretty intense, long days to record. It keeps things positive for everyone, and it means he doesn't get flustered, which saves time. It will take longer if you get frustrated when making mistakes - and making mistakes is frequent and inevitable! One of Listening Books' volunteers, who is also a professional voice actor, has a great habit of saying "thank you" instead of "sorry" whenever he's corrected. That will depend on the book and your experience. ![]() How long does it take to record an audiobook then? This makes for a great incentive to slow down when narrating! You're less likely to make time-consuming mistakes that way, and you're also increasing the amount of money you will be paid. In other words, no matter how long it takes you to record, you will be paid according to how long the finished audiobook is. However, it is most common for narrators to be paid per finished hour. What you will be paid depends not just on how experienced or famous you are (or aren't), but also on things like whether or not you're recording in your own studio and handling the post-production as well. How much do audiobook narrators get paid? Not all good actors are good narrators and vice versa - but there is a significant overlap! You also don't have to be a trained actor, although admittedly this can certainly help. ![]() Some freelance narrators do create their own studios, but here at Listening Books we record all our audiobooks in our own professionally equipped studio.

When it comes to volunteering for Listening Books we are interested in both your strengths and your preferences when casting. You always have the freedom to turn down a book you don't want to narrate, but if you're trying to break into professional narration then you may find you have to cut your teeth on books you wouldn't necessarily choose to read yourself. But the answer to this question probably depends on whether or not you're pursuing narration professionally. ![]() Generally speaking, you will perform better if you enjoy the text you're reading. I do love reading - but I hate certain genres of books. It takes mental agility and stamina along with the technical skills. It's not the same as being a good speaker, or even being a good actor, although both of those things can help. They're able to sink into the text and reflect all that emotion with their voice.
