HOW TO STOP RATS? Operation Beat The Rat! (Part 1)

Some the time has come to eradicate the rat problem!.. after 3 weeks of nothing they are back and killed and took 2 quails in 1 night!.. time to get even!

I hope you caught that rat and dealt with it mate!

I ended up getting an 80 quid air rifle and a 50 quid night vision attachment for the scope. Now it can be pitch black in the garden but i can see the rats with their glowing eyes as clear as day. I leave bait piles and ignore them for 3 or 4 days then on the 5th i shoot them in the face. Fun fact. Once shot, a rat is very unlikey to return even if its not a kill shot. Which is nice. I actually quite enjoy watching em panic wen they come under fire.

[@bstrippy1664]

Sounds like fun that does. 😂

Oh no how awful, that rat needs to go for sure. I’ve just filled two holes in the floor of my workshop where a rat has been visiting. I’ve now set traps and a wildlife camera to see if I can work out anymore entry points.

[@bstrippy1664]

It’s really starting to send me crazy!... I will get it eventually!.. thank you.
