Re: Rat poison dilemma

Hi,
I have had to choose poison or rat.
Poisoning rats is a cruel way to kill them, although I have accepted poison from the council. only in a sealed box, with breeze blocks on it.
I feel really bad for days after. I guess the best way would be in a trap, instant death or in a humane trap, but then what do you do with it?
I wish there was something that would just put them to sleep.
At the moment I am leaving well alone, as I said before, I live in perfect rat habitat,
A Rat man said that the rats he has seen here were very healthy.............
Is that a good thing?
I would monitor it's activity...... Good luck.
