That was in the very first episode, the first scene when we were introduced to Manuel.

You have a live rat stuck to a glue board. Then what?

From what I've seen, it gets thrown into the rubbish, still on the board. I don't know if there's a better option?

Eat it perhaps - as many do up here in Issan.

Tried it once: Horrible!

Surprised it hasn't been done already....

There is, it's called a rat trap. Have used them many times when I had rats in the ceiling. At least it's a swift death when the bar comes down across the rat's neck, usually instantaneous. It's the same as pictured except all steel. Available at any hardware store. I have found out since that several moth balls scattered in the ceiling keeps the rats out as well. As much as I dislike rats the idea of a living creature stuck to a board and thrown into the rubbish alive didn't sit well with me.

There is one advantage to living in Issan. Rats are dinner meat so they hide better than in BKK. 555

She said she eats there all the time - and wondered what would be done about it.

 

So do the rats I expect.

These items should have transparent covers. Flies are surely also present,.

 

Hiding the names of places with such lapse hygiene habits does the public no favours.

So let me get this right, to get away from this defamation nonsense, you need to take the photo with a much wider angle which will include the shops name?
