Got a rat problem under my shed, next to my bantams. I have tried catching them in a trap for over a month with cheese, peanut butter, doughnuts, chocolate cake and sausages, but so far nothing.

 

Last thursday I purchased a plastic trap called 'Big Cheese', and sunday morning I found 3" of tail with 9" of sinew. But tonight after walking my Gus, I came back to the garden to hear scratching and knocking to find a 10" rat caught by the back foot trying to get under the shed with trap still atached. So I got my leather glove on and pulled the ba5tard out, it wasn't a pretty sight.

 

4 .22 flat point pellets through the ringpiece and he stopped breathing.

 

Job done!!

 

Big buggers arn't they.

 

Now for the rest of his family & friends.

 

I have a picture if I can post it?

i despise rats, i have thought about buying a snake so i can feed it live ones and watch them die.

 

 

I can supply you Mustapha, how many rodents would you like?

im assuming you were not holding said rat whilst blowing a cap through his arse. LOL! could have had an entry for the darwins

 

jack russels and westies are often effective as well, and yo have the bonuse of not needing to buy them treats

Have you noticed Stu calling round more often than usual?

I've got a yellow anaconda which could eats rats, I'd recommend them. Think I mentioned him on a thread about moles a few weeks ago.

 

This isn't mine but you get the idea:

We've got those same traps in our garage. Use anchovies for bait in the future for faster results. Now my garage smells like a Pompey brothel....
