Hi, Just seen a HUGE rat a the bottom of my garden where i keep the chickens and it was in WITH them.
Found it had nibbled a hole in the wire fence (told you it was huge) and it just lopped off, not even running away.
Went down to my local Countrywide store (farmer's shop) and they have sold out of rat traps and poison as there is so much of a problem with them.
Don't want to use poison as it does not work half the time and costs a fortune.
Managed to find a plastic "one-click" trap and have baited it with a piece of Marathon bar.
Just got to see if i catch the evil rodent.
There was even a rat at my DD1's school, as bold as anything sitting under a car in the car park, we could see it as we have to go up a small incline.
Have any of you got rat problems at the moment?
