tomato leaves eaten....

That is why I have to be SO careful with poison baits. I use the bar bait and put it into suet cages so the rats cannot carry it off, and make sure it stays under cover with crumb control. Try a livetrap, baited with dog food (put the dog food into a glass jar with a metal lid with holes punched in it, so the rats can smell it real well but can't eat it), the kind that can catch several rats per load. The smell of rats attracts more rats, especially if one dies and the rest start eating it. (Same goes for mice.) You can get livetraps made of sheet metal which removes temptation from birds (since they can't see into it). Tomahawk Trap Co. might make some, not sure. I have some of their wire traps that I use for pest rabbits. ~REZ~ |
