Default Can Rats Harm Ponds??

I had the same problem last year. After killing two birds and only one rat I
gave them up. A friend of mine has had success putting bait in a piece of
PVC, 4" diameter about two feet long, that the rats can get in to, but the
birds stay out. I'm too paranoid about my dogs eating the rat afterwards to
try it.

My theory: if they aren't in my house, I don't much care.
