Thread: Autumn. Time to check vehicles for mice and rats

Had a rat at our place that ended up getting quite brave was sleeping one night and got awoken by wife screaming her head off, went out to the lounge and she's standing on the couch and the rat is out on the deck with his little front feet up on the glass of the ranch slider peering inside, didn't seem to give a shit about the racket she was making. Tried traps and poisons and all sorts but kept seeing it around. Drove down to Te Anau one night and wife wanted to stop at Kmart in Queenstown so she went in and I waited in the truck. Then herd some rustling around coming from the engine bay so I got out and popped the bonnet and there's me old mate staring back at me from the chateau de rat he had built under the bonnet. He ended up scurrying away down into the depths of the engine bay then plopped on the ground and headed straight towards Kmart and in through the big open doors. Wonder if he still lives there hahahaha
