Rats rats rats by ~Koggamojj on deviantART
it is evident that whom ever is posting the photos under the search term ‘rats’ on deviantart has never had rats.. and i don’t mean had them in a little cage in the bedroom so that they can watch how cute they are, eating sunflower seeds and running on the spinning wheel… i mean had them as in they are taking over my woodshed,, shitting all over everything,, building nests in my firewood,, harvesting the lint from my dryer vent to make soft little beds to have their babies in,, and just generally making me insane,, kind of had them…
the original reason behind the excavation of all the junk in the wood shed,, was the rats… the wood/pack rats were having a hay day in there as there was a multitude of junk to collect and places to hide.. well,, the shed is all cleaned out and organized,, and the junk has all been hauled off to the dump,, and the freaking rats are still there…
to date,, the furry little f*ckers are winning,, as i have only succeeded in trapping one.. and as anyone who has ever shared their living space with rats well knows… there is no such thing as one rat.. oh no.. huh uh… one of them finds your place,, and then they are all like moving in the whole frickin’ extended family… calling rats they don’t even like sayin’, “c’mon over,, y’ all gotta see my new place…”
all kidding aside,, it seems i have to step up my strategy here,, and since this is my first attempt at rodent control on my own,, i am open to suggestion…
