Guest manda Posted January 15, 2008 Report Share Posted January 15, 2008 might seem a dumb question but i have never been ratting and whats the typical place to find rat holes? the only place i would know to look would be at a farm or near stables but let me know where you guys have found them Quote Link to post

marko 30 Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 mcdonalds, tesco's anywere they have bins outside all good ones but you have to be careful in these places however places like tips stream banks anywhere were there is an abundance of food and somewhere for them to dig in,try the farm ditches by the corn or winter carrots and also feed hoppers for pheasant/partrigdes.

Guest little_lloyd Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Streams and waterways,, Rats like to live by water. Can provide some nice sport as terriers and rats are swiming and dashing around the banks. Quote Link to post

CountryChef 0 Posted January 16, 2008 Report Share Posted January 16, 2008 Try asking at pubs and resturants. Especially the big ones owned by huge companys such as Brewers Fayres and them sort. They produce huge amounts of rubbish as they use bought in frozen food and the packaging is sat in bins for a week. Had some good ratting trips when some friends worked at one. Quote Link to post
stephen58 1 Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Partridge release pens/cover crops is my favourite! attracts the rats like a magnet ! all the above mentioned are good places to look; basically any where rats can get a free feed ; hope this has helped you best regards Steve Quote Link to post
Ludwig 0 Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 If you can get away with it then some city/town ponds are crawling with them as they have a great food source in the LOLITS (little old lady in tennis shoes) who come every day and feed half a dozen ducks a loaf of bread each every day (no joke I have seen this happen). Good luck L*** Quote Link to post
