    Wow - that is a serious rat @Sideshow - they can’t argue with a Fenn - just remembered I have some in the shed
    Hope you get that rat sorted Blisters - I know a couple of people right now that have rat problems in their compost bin - what a great source of food for rats they could come from a long way away
    There has been one in my bin a few weeks back and he has chewed out the holes in the lower side of the bin - they were round but are now oval - must be a good place to grind his teeth
    I had an A24 in the bin for a week or so along with the Victor - but I think the neighbor killed him because he hasn’t ben back lately
    I just went out with a headlight to check - bugs had chewed out the bait on the Victor so gave them some new possum paste
    Looking forward to the pictures @Blisters
    PFBOP kill total in our street is now 144 pests in six months

    a DOC 250 works fine on rats...so do fenns..... one each side in a trapping box works good. we got two rats and a hedgepig in first week it was set in my back section.

    If you have a pond or paddling pool or a pool that needs the water changed then put a pontoon or floating thing in the middle with some feed on it. Then just spotlight and shoot it. Works a charm for the duck pond.
