stealthy1 3,964 Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 You'll never run out of rats thats for sure, they're like trains, they may not show up on time, but they will come 1 Quote Link to post
TimS 49 Posted April 22, 2013 Report Share Posted April 22, 2013 Hi mate, Let me know if you need a hand! Im just down the road in Northampton. Try Peanut Butter mixed with Nutella as bait. Spread it around so they cant run off with it and they'll stay still to lick it up while you pick them off. Do you shoot over at Kibworth? If not, you should pop by - its close to you in Market Harborough. Tim Quote Link to post

Tim Get a hair roller/curler fill it with the bait of you choice and anchor it down with wire and a strong stake so they cant take it away for the young. A rat will remove EVERYTHING in case it cant feed for a while. If you can stop them taking the food as you kill them the young will have to come and look for food. I had a major problem in my garden and thats how I solved it. 1 Quote Link to post
