    Help! RATS!!

    That's really funny!! Worth a try! Similarly, I had a Dachshund as a kid, who thought he would cut across a corner on perpendicular boat docks cuz the corner had so much gunk floating in it, it looked solid! KER-Plunk!! Ha ha. He popped up with frantic dog-paddling and very big frightened...

    Help! RATS!!

    Howard, Thank you so much for all the information. It's very kind of you to take so much time to be so thorough in explaining everything. It will be a long haul. My house is lathe and plaster and cracking around the foundation. Also, If I hammer anything into walls without a stud behind the spot...

    Help! RATS!!

    Ok, I understand....except that it appears to me that nearly everything qualifies as FOOD. (Although I'll admit I leave cat kibble out every night for the ferrel cat, so now must feed him in daylight.) Sooo rat 'food' : I had one of those neck wrap things to microwave and wrap on your...

    Help! RATS!!

    Troops: All is not Quiet on the Western Front. First, sorry to be so delayed in answering helpful messages. My work load mega-increased (tutoring kids from Taiwan and India, whose parents find "down time" during winter break unacceptable, got me to work extra hours). No shooting hoops or BBs for...

    Help! RATS!!

    Great idea with the can! I hope plastic can is ok. Don't see metal around anymore. Are Walk the Plank a DIY build? Fon't worry about catch and release, haha. No sympathy for wild trespassers. What are proportions of Baking soda to vinegar. ....Dangerous to breathe?...so only outside or...

    Help! RATS!!

    These are large fat dark grey, but white underside. Live in the basement, but have come up inside due to cupboard and pantry & pet food (feeding ferrel cat who isn't needing to be a mouser apparently) Now that I replaced outside basement ground level door, I assume they are trapped. I may be...
