At least Thaialnd has a chance to improve whereas the UK is down down down............ I thought the UK had wheelie bins that were rat-proof? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't be anymore daft than the Rabies census idea thing for Dogs 'n Cats .. Perhaps they could train the temple dogs to be rat catchers. Surely some of them are equivalent to the Rat Terrier was originally bred for ratting and farm work. A multipurpose companion dog that is capable of hunting rodents and vermin above and below ground, and to course small game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now, such complicated garbage system with a lid is too much to ask from people who can't even build a small(now destroyed) marina, the kind you see even on the coasts of failed states such as Somalia or in Cuba, an extremely poor Caribbean country and also known to get category 5 hurricanes very often (in photo below) No one can explain here why that marina can't be fixed or rebuilt for so many years, why that illegal building was allowed to be build and now abandoned for so many years without a solution,why they can't find a solution to beach erosion, why so much garbage is accumulating all over the city streets and rats invade in areas of trash bag mounds...

Grusa Posted October 30, 2018 Share Posted October 30, 2018 (edited) It's not just Pattaya. Down the road in Sattahip I regularly catch rats in the back yard, I keep a trap set, baited with 7/11 bread - they don't like cheese or designer breads! Normally I will catch one or two, then go weeks without. This last week I have caught 12, 2 in one trap once, and had to put down sticky rat in the bedroom, and caught two - they seem to like the wife's expensive Clinique soap! We have a lot of cats around, but I never see them chase anything - I think the Russians feed them to much.

You seem to like them too considering your profile photo. Nice to have mutual feelings 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are too busy with their current job of lazing about getting fat of handouts, getting diseases, and attacking people. Doing a useful job would not appeal to them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have no particular feelings for or against them as such, but I strongly object to the damage they do, especially to wiring, and the mess they make. At least my avatar doesn't crap everywhere! I think the reason I get so many is partly because of the Thai lady over the wall, who cooks outdoors, leaves food lying about and rarely washes the dishes. That, plus so far as I know I am the only one around who bothers to do anything about it. If I didn't catch them I wouldn't know just how many there are. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wake Up Posted October 31, 2018 Share Posted October 31, 2018 Actually I enjoy seeing them occasionally run around. Reminds me that humans can not control nature and other animals in this world have their place. They are scared of you so no threat to us walking down the street. Smart creatures. ????

Then all of a sudden the thought pops in your mind that you are actually sitting on no more than 2 feet of sand and down below there is a network of rats busy breeding and burrowing between giant sandbags.
