To get rid of rats, leave out a dish of carbonated soda. Rats cannot expel gas.

These rats are driving me nuts! I'm justa about willing to try anything to get rid of them. There're also very smart and cannot be underestimated. They've just about destroyed all the food no matter where I store them, it's to the point where I dont even go grocery shopping anymore.Please Help! Any suggestions?

I've also heard that powdered potatoe flakes work well, (the same idea). And who really cares if they suffer, for goodness sake, they are RATS!

I have had an infestation of rats in the attic and used the anti-coagulant D-con for it. What I understand is that it causes internal hemorraging and great thirst which causes them to go out to seek water. Their death is relatively painless. (I hope) I agree with OhlinVR very strongly that it is my responsibility as an intelligent and caring human being not to cause undue pain to any of the little creatures around me that are, after all, just trying to make a living.

If OhlinVR had an infestation of rats I wonder how that problem would be handled?

I am not sure if this would work- rats can stomach many abrasive things-but it does not sound very humane. Please remember to take care of your rat problem in a manner that will not cause the animals to suffer!

That is good idea but I have a question. Do the rats eat it and then die or do they get repelled by it somehow???
