Default Rats in the ceiling - repelling?


wrote:
Is there a way to repel rats from inside your ceiling space? I have
heard that possums dislike naphthalene and camphor. Is there anything
that rats dislike? I am definitely not putting rat poison in the
ceiling, so the little critters die in some hard-to-reach wall cavity,
and then perfume the whole house.


Poison is the most effective. Traps are available for those who
object. Live traps sound like your preferred option.
