Re: I need to know....
Anyone else had rats at their property before? Suspect I do, as it appears they have been eating some of the fruit out in the back yard.
I got a quote from a company - $220 for initial treatment; $145 for follow up 6 weeks later.
Anyone got a view on whether that is a competitive price, or suggestions about who would be a good company to go through?

I have been dealing with Rats all my life being an aviculturist.
The problem is where are they coming from you can kill them and they will come back. Get rid of the food source and use Ratsack is a cheaper option.

Re: I need to know....
If you can catch one alive, get a cigarette lighter, lift its tail & burn its arse for 5-6 seconds. It'll squeal like hell - then let it run off.
You'll never see a rat again.

Much cheaper to get a cat.

We caught one at the neighbours and I took the boring option of drowning it.....that didn't send a message like setting it on fire obvious does....lesson learned for future reference

I'd have to witness it to believe it.

Is it possible to upgrade my Android OS on my Telstra Frontier phone?
I am finding a lot of apps now require a newer version.

My neighbour has an almond tree, an apricot tree and is wheelchair bound. His back corner is over grown and a haven for vermin.
My back neighbour is a lazy **** whose backyard resembles some scrub with two old woodsheds down the back. Both of them are adjacent / connected to my nice big, new, dry and warm shed.
I had rat problems, would see one a week and smell them every time I went into the shed. Long time but now part time forumite Punk Rooster looks after my pest control problems and his baiting stations have worked a treat. I've had to remove two big fat **** from the shed who had bitten the big one and I don't have the smell so much anymore.
Constant baiting is the key. PM sent GWW.
