sycamore66j   10 #8 Posted December 7, 2010 we had rats in the roof of an old cottage we lived in over here in ireland and a neighbour who had a farm recommended a warfarin based poisin called "storm" it came in pellet form in 1kg bags. A week after using it the rats had gone, never had any since, this was 8 years ago Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Share this content via...
ChrisT70   10 #9 Posted December 7, 2010 peanut butter on a piece of wood. put it on edge of their run. shoot them as they stop to eat, .22 air rifle. simples. very humane and quick compared to poisoning.  B+Q sell drums of proper poison at £20 a bucket if you want some, get a proper covered trap tho to prevent other wildlife eating it.

nikita   10 #11 Posted December 8, 2010 (edited) Get a good rat poison wrap little parcels in cling film and leave it where they go,away from other animals of course,they will carry it back to the nest ,that way the young get it as well.It will take about a week to take effect.
