Japanese Beatles are worse!
I have rats eating my tomato's .....Roster was kind enough to teleport that gator to help eradicate them. I am concerned though that the rats are big enough to run the gator off..here is one that I got.That Colorado 'gater is rare. Take good care of him.
I have them every year Boo. They live in the green belt between the house and golf course.That’s a big rat, Pute, you need to get on top of that before they start to multiply. Living out in the country I have to deal with them on a regular basis. I have a 50 pound bag of corn in the back of my Polaris side-by-side, and when I walked out of the house an hour ago, they were two squirrels sitting on top of the bag eating the contents. Ivan doesn’t like squirrels. He brought a pregnant female back to me earlier this afternoon and she was still squeaking….![]()
Yes The Rats will drag the bait out of the stations and your Puppy can find them in the yard. TINS I had it happen, there are different types of baits that wont kill larger animals available. But I would not chance it.War has been declared. I have 3 tom cat bait stations with peanut butter bait. I can't put out anything like the trap above as my dog is in the garden all the time.
I battle them bastards ever year , They are norway rats and in winter like to find a way into the home,, garage and atticsI have them every year Boo. They live in the green belt between the house and golf course.
Ive seen rats I thought were a possum before. Around here, I saw one shoot across the driveway, smaller than that one....either that or a really big mouse!I have rats eating my tomato's .....Roster was kind enough to teleport that gator to help eradicate them.

Depending where you live ,you'll have roof rats or Norway rats or BothIve seen rats I thought were a possum before. Around here, I saw one shoot across the driveway, smaller than that one....either that or a really big mouse!
I have lived here for 28 years now and I battle the same critters and pests most every year. Lately add Japanese Beetles. The bait stations I use are Tom Cat and never have had that problem. I suppose it is possible for a rat to break off a chunk and carry it outside the trap but I have never had an animal get sick or have seen any bait on the surrounding ground.I battle them bastards ever year , They are norway rats and in winter like to find a way into the home,, garage and attics

I have a yellow jacket infestation. When I cleared the land a free years ago I left plenty of oak trees around the premises. The root system close to the trees are squishy like a sponge and the yellow jackets love to make massive nest in them. I have killed 6 nest so far but haven’t found the last couple.I have lived here for 28 years now and I battle the same critters and pests most every year. Lately add Japanese Beetles.

Funny you say that. I have my house surrounded with these....The dark at the bottom is dead Yellow Jackets. If I don't do the the damn things won't let the Humming Birds near their feeders.
