Need practical advice - how to get rid of a rat?

Well...


Many on here have Eglish as fouth or fifth. For me it's only the third.

How's your Gaelic?

Are you fishing for something?


There certainly are some people that I dislike. But I'm like the most of the inhabitants of these fora and there are some, you included, that I'm very fond of. Perhaps, my posts don't reflect it. I blame language barrier :)

RE: Fight for love.

Fight for love.


Love is a feeling. Your feeling. Whom are you going to fight for your feeling?

This forum is rather old one, which gives me lilberty to assume that one or other participant here has already lost someone very significant. Parents most probable, a class mate, a sibling, a cat or two... Death per se doesn't cancel love, see? You still can feel the warmth that those people (or animals) induced in you, when they were alive.

Once I had a cat. I loved him. He died. I cannot have another cat. I don't want a cat I cannot love.
Once I loved a man. He died.

Fighting for a relationship is quite different matter. I did it twice. Lost both times. Not going to do it again. Am I not good enough as am? The exit it there --->

Nope! In case I'd resort to blood-spilling meathods and win, I'd like this one to remain unknown gnawer.

To Buffybear:

Thanks, but I don't want to know where this rat goes, I think that everybody, a rat as well, has right to privacy. As long as this rodent keeps away from my back door, I content :)

Can't do anything else but keep spreading spices :)

But how are your hunting skills? Are you able to catch and kill your food?

Your dogs can't, so much we have established :)

RE: Where are the Japanese?

Here's a link, galrad:



After visiting it, you can always start a thread: Where are the Americans?

Or should I start it for you?

Bought cayenpepper and sprinkled between boards over the place I think it has its nest. Saw it run out. Dunno though, whether it was annoyed by pepper or the activity above its head in general or that was just a co-incidence.

RE: Its Going To Take Time For Those of My Generation And Older

Well... as pain-killer or an epilepsy drug, why not. But please, dear pot defenders, pay attention that it will be in pill form and quite possible on prescription. What seems to be the progressive liberals fighting against establishment will result in Big Pharma increasing its profit.

Perhaps, it's time buy some more of their shares.


As an aid to deal with everyday life... A drug is a drug still. If only pro-cannabis brigade spent as much time promoting healthy life style.

The first link I got on the issue says: "Keep trapping" :D

To Karl:

Googled it and got such name as rat trap "Good nature". Dunno, whether it's funny or sad...

Will try pepper first.

As Arthur says: depends on whom we deserv.

Dreadful perspective :/

Obviously unsuccessful, but we still need to know the active substance and the dosage, in order to avoid doing the same mistake next time.

First pepper, then perfume, then a proper rat trap. If nothing of that works, then and only then I'll invest in tropical devices.

To Arthur:

People here recommend dogs as anti-rodent weapon. Didn't your dogs scare away or hunt rats?

Why! Thanks! Such a simple method - will try it tomorrow first thing, if it's not raining outside :)

If you were a hungry cat? Or cat with small kittens?

Bet, you would.

We seldom have sun here. This summer was exclusively sunny, but now it's autumn and dark. A solar powered anything will run out of power the very first day :)

I don't have a cat. Nonetheless, all cats hunt mice and small birds, but not every cat would challenge a rat. My neighbours' cat visit now and then, but it doesn't change the situation.

It's one rat and it's outside.

Thanks for advise, I've checked and there's a trap that is activated before the rodent would rich the bait. Yes, man is smarter than rat. Or than dog, for that matter :)

I am wondering though, why peope keep comparing themselves with rats? Are humans and rats assumed to be equals?
