When the farmers get the corn out of the fields every year around my house I always have mice that try to come to my home so I fixed that problem quick like I got me some outside cats let them go & they take care of that for me just about everyday they bring dead mice on my porch & leave them right by my front door I get them put em in the trash thank them with special treats & they go get more lol.

Well rats are clean particularly pet/dosmetic rats, but you do not want wild ones in your house. Though calling them vermin is what I object to, wheras some humans are the worst vermins and much more dirtier than any rat.

[@xcxzozo3899]

[@haileyst.hilaire8237]

Emma Noseworthy they also sell them to feed to snakes

[@deborahbizkit]

emma I'm french but i'll try my best to be understandable in english. in reality it is not the rats that carry the diseases especially the one causing the plague, but their parasites ^^ like fleas and mites...the same you can find on your dog, or cat (exactly the same !!!) or for the case of fleas they are the same that some persons with very poor hygiene can carry on armpits or pubic hair ! and if ever a rat is ill, their system is so different that he mostly will cure in a couple days , or die in a couple days. it is a shame people learn so many received opinions about rodents vehiculated by this sort of voyeuristic tv shows.

[@peggypeggy4137]

Yes !! Rats are going to do what they do best which is eat and breed. It's up to humans who are capable of understanding, to keep themselves clean. If there is an issue/garbage on your property you should get 1 warning or notice. 24 hrs later--a fine. Something has to be done!

[@creamofthecrop8286]

I agree with you, Jackyblue! I cannot abide the thought of rats, roaches, or flies!!!!!

[@SousChef77]

Google penny water bag. These are used in Texas, and I never see flies. Place them outside near your doors and in your dining/kitchen area. Should do the trick.

[@billijomaynard8924]

Roaches are disgusting, the apartment building i live in is infested with them and the landlord does nothing. I'm constantly cleaning and doing everything i can to eradicate them but with my neighbors having them as well, it is nearly an impossible task, i get rid of them and within a week i get them back because everyone else in my building has them.

[@aliyamoon80]

I was pressing clothes on laundry day, and was using a spray bottle of water to spritz the dress shirts. A big fly was buzzing round the kitchen, and I HATE them. I should say that I live in a huge rural community with loads of horses and livestock around. I had my spray bottle handy, so I shot a spritz of water at the fly. I DROWNED it with a single spray! Literally, killed it on the fly!

The snap trap works, they had it stationed wrong. The opening needs to butt the wall so the mouse/rat runs along the wall, smells the treat and SNAP!! It's the only trap I use.

[@deniseg-hill1730]

The increase in rats is because of the increase in fast food debris plus food litter everywhere and the food waste bins outside restaurants, also people who ignore the rules and don't care where they dump their rubbish. I used to work for Tower Hamlets Council housing dept. Cockroaches were a big problem as well. Some of the shops were and still are disgusting. The cockroach eggs were in the bottom of sacks of rice. Just take a walk up Brick lane, and there are plenty of streets like it. The council's drains and sewers dept used to carry out regular cleaning of drains etc. Then privatisation came in. Same with Pest control. These depts were far better before privatisation.

[@smarie3874]

So, I’m from AB, Canada. We are a rat free province. However, if you don’t dispose of trash properly in many places you’ll find bears in your yard. Rarely, they’ll break into homes and raid the fridge. After watching this, I’m honestly not sure which is worse.

In London I had - thankfully - only mice in my kitchen. They came to the ground floor, I believe, because there were no cellers like home. I then loored cats to the house.

I have killed 5 with poisen and a cat appears to have taken a chunk out of a 6th. Leaving a smelly peppermint candle up in the roof seems to have made them go away from my house at least.

[@justrandom8766]

Rats love gardens with bird feeders and pets in cages....rabbits etc. A regular supply of food as the bits fall to the ground from the bird feeders. People forget that killing one rat at a time will work but no as they have a nest of babies to go back to. Poison is the best.

It is a wonderful thought but not a good idea with mice or rats, unless you can take them into the countryside with no people residing in the area. I hate killing animals as well but releasing them, they will either come back into your place or invade someone else's. Better to humanely kill them.

the better question is the rats with poison die near water sources, farms, your veggie garden and it poisons your family or your neighbors family. poison isn't an answer. it's toxic to humans. best to use cats and dogs

[@annehaight9963]

Anything that eats the dead rats will also be poisoned. The blood-thinning poison is basically warfarin, and the show is not quite honest about how it works. Basically the rats bleed internally. It's not a very nice death. It's best to use snap traps or electrocution traps. Both work -- I've used them successfully. They kill instantly and humanely. DO NOT USE GLUE TRAPS. Glue traps are indiscriminate and they will kill birds, lizards, insects, squirrels, and anything else that gets stuck in them.
