They bought some poison online but it wasn't eaten. I'd be onto pest control like a shot! While burning down my house.

Oopse, I must have skim read the bit about it probably being a young rat.

Get a cat.

Roland update: he took the bait on one side of the loft, so I have moved the uneaten bait to the side it went from, and that hasn't been touched. I also haven't heard any scuffling since Wednesday, so I am hoping Roland is now an ex-rat. And I hope that he died with the morons next door who didn't inform their landlord when they SAW A FUCKING RAT IN THEIR HOUSE. Or the ones who did nothing when they found actual rat poo.

I dread to think what state the former ones' house is in, given the glimpse I got inside their conservatory. It was filled with huge piles of dirty clothes.

Yuk. Hell is other people sometimes. I hope that is the end of your rodent troubles.

Thank you. Still no sounds, so fingers crossed. I hope I haven’t spoken too soon.

My rat hole in the garden is back :cry: I had filled it with stones but unlikely that they filled the whole tunnel so I'm hoping that it's just dropped. Scout is very interested though so I'm suspecting the worse.

I've put a big tile over the hole now to see if the area around it is disturbed. If it is I'm just going to pay someone to fully inspect. It's either a crack in my drainage or a crack in my neighbours or outside in the street.

Any news, Marth?

My rat appears to have departed. I haven't heard anything for ages now and the bait remains untouched. No smells either - thank god!
