I’m really glad you’re on KZbin, Shawn! This could totally be a cable TV show where they stretch it out to 30 minutes and have way too many commercials, the way you do it is so much better to watch. Great job!

[@SandrA-hr5zk]

It'd be awesome to see him on Nebula/Curiosity Stream with the other educational KZbinrs. Then he'd have someplace to upload the complete footage without KZbin censors.

[@Kineth1]

I am so disappointed with contemporary TV. For example, "America's Funniest Home Videos" is an hour of broadcast time. Never watch it when it is broadcast, record it. Skip 20+ minutes of advertisements, another 10-15 minutes of the "host" talking about the actual content. Actual watch time? 20-30 minutes, and the networks want me to give them an hour of my time. KZbin may sometimes have a lot of advertisements, but it still beats the heck out of network TV for content density.

As an alternative to pesticide laden spray foam, regular high expansion foam with steel wool pads pressed in works great. They don't like to chew through the metal. Fill the hole 1/2 way with foam, stick in some heavy steel wool and top off with more foam.

Best way to fill those holes up is with broken glass and chicken wire plugs, held in with concrete, Someone I know did this is his basement and then lined the basement walls with 1/4" plate glass, covered with drywall. The rats went somewhere else, because it was too much work to get through all that. They have never been back!

Great content Shawn really enjoy the way you mix things up with the channel. The collab with your cameraman sounds like a good idea.

[@kenhannaford6781]

You're the real pro Sean. A very effective method I found on smart buggers is to set the traps but render them ineffective for around three days by putting something under the trigger, remove the batteries or co2 cartridges or whatever but have them baited. Once the bait is consistently disappearing and the trap just becomes a food receptical set them. I also p"ut them in areas the rats don't always use. They smell the bait from long distances and will always find it. That way their suspicions upon finding a new item in their pathways they are so familiar with don't kick in. Love, love, love seeing you with the merch on. Love knowing you're making an excellent production. As my kids would agree, "Two thumbs up Daddy"

[@onyxlad2827]

[@InvasionAnimation]

What species of rat did you capture the most throughout your rat catching history?

My guess would be the Norwegian or brown rat simply because it's the most numerous across the globe. I know he's caught a few pack rats and Nutria but I think of the videos mostly show brown rats.
