Thanks, I didn’t know he was still selling them. I texted the number and they got right back to me. They have them on hand ready to go.

I’ve found here on the wetside it helps to pre bait by throwing carrots and or apples around to get the rats to know what they’re then stuff the carrots in the back and a couple on each side of the entrance and definitely tie them off to something or anchor them
