Rat died up in the wall of the bathroom and pretty much stank up the whole house for weeks until they figured it out. It was poisoned next door and came in through the crawl space under the house then died at their place..

I'm all about the old fashion .20 trap. Every time I've used it, it's been quick and painless(ish) for the mouse or rat. Rat traps are much larger but anyways. It's gross and all that but you know it works when it works.

BTW nice plants!

Hi Legion thanks for droping by.
I've used the old fashioned traps but they do seem to splatter bits of vermin all over the place.
I didn't fancy rat enhanced buds or cleaning it off my motorcycle.

It is a fitting end for em though I do agree.

how'd yours turn out....?

HEy Dunza my DLH turned out rather tall.
More than the Hawaiian.
HAd to use that old "break their neck" technique.
They responded well and in under a week formed a big knuckle joint with the main cola growing horizontal.
That kept it under the light.
Pretty good yeild and a nice smoke.
I'm re-vegging the DLH & Hawaiian with growing some new Purple Skunk X Hawaiian.
The Skunk may pong a bit soon but no sight or smell of the rats for a while now.

just came across a case of those ultra sonics doing an awesome job.
the homes attic and garage where infested. several nests in the attic, rats had chewed into the hvac ducts, so the homeowner had to plywood over all the registers.

spent a few month fighting them with all kinds of traps, but when ehey got the sonics, the rats left.

been 11 months... no return

I had a little grey female cat that could derat an acre. She'd leave their tails and some assorted innards as a gift. I still have no idea how she could kill rats and never get even a nick on her, rats are pretty badass. Cats- the answer to rodent issues.
