Rats!!!!!

[Logged On]

Due to the new housing going up opposite us, we've had an influx of rats over recent weeks...

 

We had a problem a while ago when they started building the new hospital, it's next door to this new estate that's going up, but was far enough away to not have the full on infestation like this time...

 

They don't seem interested in them chew blocks I've got down ATM, so I've been recommended to get 'tracking powder'....?

 

 

Can anyone advise thanks....?

Mk4 fenn traps i use works a treat caught 5 last week:thumbup:

Fenn tracks work well but they must be hidden with a cover of tube to prevent other wildlife getting caught ....unfortunately they attract Hedgehogs so not the best option.. I have great success with the live cages and use Wossits and Bananas has bait with a piece of wood cabled tied inside on the bait table, this encourages the rats to climb over and put bate back of the cage ....

Legal information...these Rats were humanely killed inline with the animal welfare who say they should be put in a dark bag and clubbed to death!

I've got them burrowing in the chicken run which makes it very difficult to use poison.

But I'd also get satisfaction out of using the AirArms too. When is the best time to sit around waiting. It's a bit chilly at the moment.
