    That's what the starlings do in our compost bin, since the neighbours kids flogged the bin lids.

    Forget the flying Rats @gadgetman what is your opinion of the electric traps, saw one on youtube that used the circuit from an electric fly swat - those tennis type ones.

    Could work, maybe put a narrow ramp up and put the plates on the ramp. The capacitor would in the video wouldn't really do anything useful as the battery is already a big voltage storage device.

    I just used a bit of PVC tube with a poison bait block tied inside. Cats can't get to the bait, gives them a secure place to nibble and keeps rain off.

    What about the ol bucket trap?? Where they walk the swivelly plank and fall into a bucket of water to stop them from jumping out.
    If your not up to the task blisters, it's okay to ask for help....just call the guy

    I think that blisters will himself be walking the metaphorical plank of shame at this point. Falling off the end into an abyss of rat-less ridicule and pain
