Disease control head Kanrapa Mukdasanit said Sept. 10 that the Health Department had distributed 105 rat traps to beach vendors north of Soi 13, urging them to put out traps weekly. In the first week, 27 rats were caught.

They got rid of them by bringing into the country a lot of cats. Now you will be hard pushed to see a rat anywhere over there 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IraqRon Posted September 21, 2018 Share Posted September 21, 2018 I wonder if the PM will chime in on this and demand that the rats can be relocated but not harmed? don't they deserve to be treated like their brothers with wings?

Best to drown them in the water in their cages. After that leave them on the beach and let the tide take them out to sea like everything else. Like the new sand brought in at great expense, raw sewage and all the other effluent from hotels and the plastic and garbage and cigarette butts. I wonder if rattus pattayas is a sub -species of rattus klongtoey? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
