Absolutely not. I could bait if I wanted to but it's bad for the environment. There are hawks and other animals here that could eat a poisoned rat. Now I'm going to do rat patrol before I go to work

They're not in that vent again, are they?

This time they made homes along the foundation One down. I know there are at least 2 because there is another hole near the front of the house. The gestation period for mice and rats are short. You don't want to procrastinate on stuff like this. I do like that A24 gas powered trap but the Victor Traps work just fine.

What sad day. Got a chipmunk. Rats need to go.

Why is there no mention of snap traps or other forms of rat traps on this documentation?

I caught this on facebook

One of the reasons for rat holes in your tote is because they are not being kept clean. Here’s an example of a tote we had returned this week. The smell from debris that is stuck in the tote will attract rats first, and once they create the holes, others will follow. It’s like a wide open restaurant for them to dine in!

So here is a solution. Use a 95 gallon tote liner.

These are on Amazon. The reason I post up Amazon links is because I am an affiliate.

The battle never ends...

Spotted this 2 weeks ago... Filled it back in to see if anything dug its way out.... and it did.



I could call Erie County and whine.. .or... we go rat hunting

[WNYresident]

I pulled the traps out.... Gonna be a big rat or two...

This is a multi unit mouse trap. Not adequate for rats

Do they sell these in a larger model for politicians?

[WNYresident]

Well rats have built a new home... can't have that..





Could have complained and called the county to set bait boxes but I find that lame...

I dug out the trusty snap traps but used cheese and carrot. I didn't have peanut butter/apple. You can seriously hurt yourself with these. As always wear rubber gloves to keep your smell off the traps and to keep the germs off your hands.. I have gotten my money's worth out of these.




We will see what we get over night... Placed a trap on either side of the rat home. I hope I don't catch anything other than a rat...
