I’ve used moth balls but they are not good for buildings with human habitation (carcinogenic & awful smell)

The bleach (pool) hockey pucks might work

Give it a couple of years. The big question will be, if the rats don’t come around, what the heck are we supposed to eat?

“A Ph.D. in urban rats studies!!!”

My first reaction was the same. Yet, upon further thought, why not? Rats/rodents are indeed a significant urban problem. Rat studies is actually a far more useful discipline than critical race theory, gender studies, queer literature, and all the various and sundry other “woke” fields of study.

So his solution is to prompt the rats to move to your a neighbors? Moving the problem doesn’t solve the problem. Our cities are being overrun with homeless, which results in an explosion of rats. Homeless bring trash which brings rats. We need to kill the rats and remove the homeless. Both the rats and the homeless are too well fed. Making both less comfortable will be a start.

I was sold on pumping their lairs with dry ice which suffocates them due to the carbon dioxide it gives off. When PETA lectures that such pest control is “too cruel”, you know it’s gotta be effective.

"A Ph.D. in urban rats studies!!!"

To know:

The big picture: Rats usually don't return to places where they can't find food
spray their garbage cans and trash bags with 10% bleach solution when taking out trash.
Keeping garbage cans tightly closed

Common knowledge to those who battled them, except that 10% bleach solution is not much a deterrent since it does not last long and city rats laugh at so-callerd rat-resistent bags themselves.

Now here is what the Ph.D. will not tell you in battling outside rats but a veteran will:

When faced with an environment outside your own and where you have little control (but can prayerfully safely work without objection from neighbors), get some JT Eaton 750 Top Gun All Weather Rodenticide Bait Blocks ($34.60 for 4 lbs).

Using gloves, pulverize each block in a bag. Mix well with peanut butter about 5 parts bait to 1 part peanut butter or as little of the latter as you can use. Place a large spoonful or two in a baggie, drip some meat fat into the bait. Seal bag till ready to use (within a couple days or so is best) and then open the bag a little and place in locations only small animals can get into, like behind lattice work under porches. It is best to place bait out a day or so after trash pick up.

When we moved where we are now it was like a rat playground (they were playing), now seeing any is rare, and better barrels helped the neighborhood also. Thanks be to God.

Do you suppose this remedy will also work for mouse control?
