Top tip Ronboy, downside is the back of the house has no upstairs windows and I got rid of my trusty Gold Star last year. I was quite impressed with some little .22 Air rifles I saw last September in a gun shop in Denmark, brand new break action with a wooden stock and a 4X 'scope for 255 Kroner including a tin of pellets which is sub 30 quid new. Probably Chinese but at that price who cares, I should have got one...

Our bedroom goes up into the roof void partly so the ends are sloping (There is probably a name for is) Anyway this means my head is just a couple of feet under the roof. Now imagine a pitch black room and the sound of scratching just above your head...
The ultrasonic thingy sounds attractive, but so does poison....
You're looking for blood! :lol: :lol:

Wot about non setting Gel like TAK, we used that in Rentokil, or humane traps..I got one for a squirrel.
Warfarin sugar puffs work (blue)...with warfarin in water alongside for when they drink...or chocolate moulded on to the prongs of a trap? smear markls will show entry exit routes....
Difference between ratshit and mouseshit... mouseshit is wee, rice like grain in nature, ratshit is used for tigening up bolts :roll:
Political Correctness is the language of lies, written by the corrupt , spoken by the inept!
We have rats on our small farm. I spent £60 on a Remington semi 22rf. The rats now make the best moving target practice ever.
If you have the space, I would recommend it.
