I sent you a pm.One of those beasts rode 12 hours home with a friend in her trucks frame. Got home and it made a nest with various vegetation on the truck's warm motor.We tried baiting it with cheese and then pepperoni both to no avail. Luckily I found a couple pieces of chewed on crab apple that it packed home from Idaho and sure enough it was the rat's kryptonite. Game over.Not sure you know but pack rats hate light and that's why you see people with rigs parked with their hoods up. They will make a nest under the hood and chew all your engine wiring. Good Times.
We have caught a handful of rats in our rental house using this method https://fivegallonideas.com/bucket-mouse-trap/
Well I didn’t kill him last night evidently, checked in there tonight and couldn’t find him, then finally started hearing him thump. Found him inside a box with some small pots. That was fun since the box was not holding together well. Slid plywood underneath and a Rubbermaid lid on top and took it outside, wife slowly opened the box til we saw him. Clearly the 22 bird shot isn’t quite enough for them unless it’s point blank. But he’s gone now.
