Blackdog92 2,047 Posted March 9, 2017 Report Share Posted March 9, 2017 I've been trying for a couple weeks to get rid of the rats that have made home in my lambing shed, until this morning I've had no luck with my efforts, mainly with the smoker and terriers I just couldn't get them to evacuate there lair. I thought bugger it I will try a few fenns and see how I get on with them, so I put down 6 around the most used holes and to my joy when I came down this morning i have 4 big fat rats in them, it will only be the tip of the iceberg but at least it's a start. I've reset them and I'm hoping for some more luck over the next few days to at least reduce them a bit. My neighbor always has plenty with him having loose stock feed and a river running through the yard so it will be an ongoing battle to get on top of them. If only I could catch moles this easy but that's another story. 1 Quote Link to post
