Kill a rat
This rat seems to actually like the poison I'm feeding him, and cleverly steals the food from the rat-trap and then sets it off. At least he could leave a thank you. Ideas? Do the electronic rat traps work? alan |

[..] I have tried the electronic *mouse* version. Fantastic! Humane, deadly, net, and clean. There are no misses. As for conventional bail traps for rats: Set it up with the long axis perpendicular to the wall, with the end touching the wall, and the bait end toward the wall. That way, the rat cannot jump away from the bail when he sets it off. I once had a rat that I tried to catch for a month. When I switched to that system, I caught him the next night. Thanks Mike, great info. I'm gonna get this critter now ;) alan |
