Thanks but no thanks. I think I'll pass.
Im begining to think I may be mistaken. I do wish someone else could confirm what I heard. Maybe my advanced age is playing tricks on me.
I'll try to find something from the great god google.
It's not April 1st already is it?

[QUOTE 2998718, member: 259"]Don't worry, they have a strong homing instinct. He probably got back before you did.

Nah, we didn't see him/her again. It was pretty obvious when he was there because I'd go out the back for a fag in the out building and I could hear him rummaging around in the other room. There was no door so I would block the door with a big bit of wood whilst I was in there.
After I let him go I blocked up all the entrances he could have been using and touch wood he nor any other of his little ratty chums have been back.
Ducks on the other hand is a completely other story. One which I may divulge another time...When I can be arsed.

Take it round to @Sara_H neighbour's house and drown it in the water butt; if she had one, that is.
My dad used to do this with rats, he's since found out you can be done by the RSPCA, so now shoots them with an airgun instead!

Nowt short lived about super rats. Normal rat poison can't kill them. First heard about them in 96/97, growing upto two feet in length(body length). Earlier this year http://www.mirror.co.uk/news/uk-news/uk-weather-super-mutant-rats-2998844

I remember the super rats story. It was at the same time that Rentokil relaunched themselves. Coincidence? I'll let you be the judge.

Not certain if Rentokill operate in Ireland & wether their means of killing/poisoning would be any better than that available to farmers.

St. Patrick got rid of all the snakes; who's the modern day equivalent as to who can rid the island of rats?

To be honest, it could be any of those. It was a long time ago that I heard it. It was a news item on tv. But that piece looked interesting. Thanks
