Hi all

In my old home some rats took up residence. I did use sprays that were suppose to repel them, and fancy rat traps (that did work). But these rats doubled every time I killed one.

The sewing room with fabric and yarn was a delight to them. And any foods put back, well they can chew threw many things.

It was to the point of needing to move out and have the place cleared out, then cleaned and starting over again.

So, have any of you lived with rats and how did you get rid of them? What poisons did you use if no other animals or small people in the house?
Equal parts of flour, sugar and borax. Mix with a little water to bind and let dry. Have a blessed day 🙏
