Is it legal to buy and use rat poison, or do you have to call in a
pest control expert?

Any advice appreciated, thanks.

Legal in US. Go to store. If they sell rat poison, buy it.

He's not in the US. Your advice is good otherwise.

The rat poison in the little plastic bags (rats eat through the bag)
is not only very cheap, it's highly effective. Rats never seem to learn
that trick. Funny, as they seem intelligent otherwise.

Killing a few rats won't help, other than giving you a purpose in
life. So long as the food supply remains more will come.
