Edit: they are mice! Slightly better than rats... :th

Anyone have suggestions on how to get rid of rats near my coops? My CRAZY NEIGHBOR decided to move some of his old RAT INFESTED equipment and now they’re making their way up here. :hit The cats are doing a good job... BUT THERE IS SOOO MANY MOMMA RATS WITH BABIES THAT IT IS SICKENING! :sick :hit I don’t think the cats can rid of them by themselves because there is so many. :(

Hi Kayla!
That is actually a mouse and not a rat. Rats are huge - as big as your cat or bigger.
You could use mouse traps to help thin them out if they really are driving you that crazy.
Is it really that big of a deal, though? There are mice all over the place in my coops, it doesn't really matter a whole lot to me. My ducks love them - they snatch them up and eat them when they run past.
