Hi there. I've got a cheap, effective way to get rid of the Rats. I've done
it in our farm (in my country). Try it! might help!! Take 200grams of white
plain flour and 200grams of white plaster powder (From homebase) OR white
cement powder or equivalent. We prefer plaster it is nearly odourless... and
some spoonfuls of plain sugar. Put a small piece of butter at the bottom of
bowl and mix the powders and sugar thoroughly and put them on the top of the
butter. Avoid touching mix with hands! Let your rats enjoy a nice meal...
And make sure they have access to some fresh water to drink. Once rat's guts
full of your magic mix and some water, its dead for sure. It is good they
die in their burrows and never give stinking smell. Make sure no other
animals have access to mix! It worked in our farm. I don't know how smart
the rats are in UK!!! You can do any quantity accordingly. I wish I was near
you mate....
Good luck
Cheers. R.A.
