WarpSpeed Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 (edited) And me and snakes, I hate the smell too though in this case the snakes may be preferable unless it's a Cobra or viper that is but a nice small Python or Boa, perfect. I used to have a 3 foot reticulated python when I was there, now that I think about it maybe I should have leased it out for this purpose? Natural rat and rodent extermination service.

Scotssing Posted February 7, 2015 Share Posted February 7, 2015 Snakes consume and eat a rat once every few days. Owls though have a much more ravenous appetite so put an owl nesting box in your garage This is what the plantation owners used to do on the rubber plantations Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

yankee99 Posted February 8, 2015 Share Posted February 8, 2015 Just remember if you have one there are usually more. If in your car most likely in or around your house. Check the attic and around storm drains...Peanut butter laced with poison is a good treat! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think I mentioned the rat possibly carrying the trap earlier on. So now that he did, you can use WD40 to remove the glue and then use a good grease removing dish soap to then remove the WD40. Glad to hear you got one though. Who said anything about the burning mosquito coils? If you think that's what Camphor is that's not what I was talking about, I was talking about the moth balls like Deke was. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
