Annoying little shits.
« on: 30 November 2023, 12:32:47 »

Had the same problem last year.

Why do the manufacturers not make 'rat poison' more lethal. So lethal in fact that it drops the little bastard before the poison has even reached it's tiny belly.

This latest mouse( I think there is just one) has consumed roughly 3 times it's body weight in poison yet it is still coming back for more. :-\

Commercial rat poison is piss weak. :-\

I can see where the little turd has been gnawing at the wiring, and also sound-proofing material under the bonnet.

........not to mention the little turd leaving his 'little turds' all over the engine bay. >:(

Possibly....but I would expect more black greasy turds.

Even so, The amount of poison that has been consumed should be enough to kill 100 large rats..... :-\

there are rats that keep coming back for more bait/poison from my garden. I've put loads out over the past few years.
I'm pi55ing in the wind at stopping them completely because Mrs B puts loads of food out for the birds (& squirrels), a near neighbour keeps chickens & the rats also have access to an 'eat all you can buffet' in the form of our compost bins!  :-X

I do, almost every day. It is the warm engine bay that attracts them. :-X

Anyway...I've also 'boxed off' a couple of traps. This mean there is only one way in if they want to get the peanut butter.

I hope to see a couple of dead rodents when I next lift the bonnet. >:D

They need toys to play on instead of cars.

Seen a lot of "slide" traps with traps doors. :y

 Thanks Skruntie.....If I had more room the 'bucket catcher' works well......but sadly they are in the engine bay where space is tight.
