similar to icing sugar and plaster of paris.... i like these ideas as if cats or dogs have a go at them they are just a bit crunchyQuote:

Read on the net a while ago that if Rats sniff/inhale Black Pepper it irritates their lungs, they swell and pop..bye bye rat
Also apparently human hair chokes them..go to the nearest pub as scalp the most pissed bugger there and try it mixed in runny cat food..
And apparently Ammonia poured down their holes makes them think cats are around so they allegedly leave.
Me..I like thinking I'm Rambo, waiting 6 hours in the frost with bread as a proven bait..then shoot the buggers!
Be warned though..rat shooting is addictive..when my current spot is thinned I'll be searching elsewhere for shooting spots
Only issue is if they chew through the water pipesQuote:

May bee if you put a sizable block of ice beside the compost, drill a hole in the middle of it and sprinkle some surprise peas around it. Sit and watch it, when that cunning old rat comes out for a pee kick him in the icehole. :thumbs:
Get a plastic bag from off a double bed mattress, place over the compost bin when you know he is in residence and weight it down. Then with you oxy acetylene gas set run a good mix into the bag, then tape a sparkplug into the hole in the corner where you ran the gas in. Now run your wires back to your hiding spot, connect one to a car battery earth and the other through a coil or ignition unit to the pos. Ear muffs should be worn
You forgot......and capture it on video :thumbsup:Quote:

I recommend inviting some politicians around, tell them there is free stuff and that parliament services will in fact pay them for the afternoon. With a pack of rats running around like that you are sure to entice the problem rat out and probably won't even have to kill it as it will bugger off with the rest of them when the bludging comes to an end, namely when the free stuff stops.
Wow that only took seven pages.....you guys are so cruel.....the original op has a name of blisters and you are advising him to blow up his compost heap........ummm.....did the name not give you the hint that maybe he or she has not such a good relationship with things that got boom:XD:;):thumbsup:...don’t worry he will bae back with a new name of scorched blisters:o:XD::P
I would add a caution to the gas explosion technique: this can trigger earthquakes due to a seismic pulse, as we can observe has happened in Christchurch. There have now been two earthquakes following the gas demolition of the house in ChCh on Friday. The first on Saturday and another this morning. Close study of the photos from ChCh reveals that No rats are present and I have it on good authority that all rats in a large radius have legged it, making one think that this method may be a viable alternative to 1080 drops, with the reservation to not use it during the bird nesting season.
theres been a lot of shit talked but I've yet to see a bloody dead rat. Come on @Blisters sort the bastard would you. You've left me hanging in anticipation
gahhhh tell me about it! I've even put bacon in the trap with cotton...Quote:

I was starting to think that old mate super rat had moved on... so I bunged a bunch of compostable kitchen scraps in the bin too see if there was any activity. I had the egg carton all done up and put a little smoked kawhai in it too for good measure...... yep he's still there Attachment 116238
Rub that smoked fish inside of that trap.
Well he's tough and brave, the pig jaw didn't frighten him
done, and have a piece set on the trap too, hopefully he has a taste for it nowQuote:

do you reckon he could have "my scent" and is put off anything I touch?
Yes, you need to wear rubber gloves but as berg243 writes he is 'just messing with you'. Who knows where else he is dining, he might have half a dozen compost bins plus pet kibble spots on his round. Meaning that he can be selective and is not driven by hunger.Quote:

Do you move your rat trap ? Rats are neophobic [scared of new objects in there home range] so if you are continually moving it ol rattus aint going to be happy seeing this new object in its home range. He wont realise its the same object.. if its been moved, its a new object.

It say in the link to put your trap in the box unset and let rattus wander in and out and let him get some confidence, then set the trap and give it the bad news.
Interesting and funny thread.
