since the nest got found we haven't seen the slightest sign of the vermin so I'm hoping that it over and done with, my dog is disappointed though he love chasing them.
Now then, get your equipment—your quiver and bow—and go out to the open country to hunt some wild game for me.  Gen. 27:3

My bucket trap keeps getting knocked over by raccoons :bash:  I havent caught a rat yet :'(

Sounds like you have to get rid of the Raccoons first, then the rats!  :chuckle:
If it was easy, everybody would be doing it.

When Bernie Madoff did it, it's called a "Ponzi Scheme"
When Government does it, it's called "Social Security"

I have been battling rats for a couple years now.  :  )

http://hunting-washington.com/smf/index.php/topic,51079.0.html

Some Harbor Freight collapsible cage traps.  Had a couple get away but I think I have it figure out now. 

 

 

Booner rat I got with the pellet rifle.




Using weasel boxes to set traps around the yard.  Had to find a way to keep the dogs, chickens, and kids out of them and they work great.
