Rat traps will never get rid of all the rats, poison is the only thing to do that.Feed is in a big plastic tub, rat proof. I’ve seen rats eating the food out in the run, even in broad daylight.
Poison isn’t really an option because the chickens free range often. So we have been using traps ever since we discovered rats but they must keep reproducing or something to be causing this big of an issue.
Are you allowed an air rifle ? If you can shoot straight perhaps that is an option, but it will take a long time
