Many years ago, we had some rats taking up residence and I had a pellet gun - pellet just bounced off one of those suckers. My dad was getting more peeved so he got the 22 out and sat on a picnic table having a few beers and smokes patiently waiting. Think he got two maybe three of them...
My brother in law had a stroke and his Ford Ranger sat under an oak tree at his house for 2 years. The squirrels and chip monks ate 7 connectors off the truck and even ate the plastic fuel line off of the fuel pump. I ended up replacing the pump and was able to get all 7 connectors from Rock Auto to get it running again. My mouser is black and white and will eat anything he catches. Wife put up a new bird feeder and I told her it was a nice cat feeder, she didn't appreciate that but i warned her and it happened. One less robin.
i noticed a rustling sound in the shed today, suspected a rat. I placed a peanut-butter baited spring loaded rat trap on top of the freezer just in case. A few hours later I looked in, trap was on the floor. One less rat.
I use the glue traps in post 29. A small dab of peanut butter on that small center post, and all is well.
I haven't done anything yet, but plans are for a truck shop and a shooting range. I am just waiting for my bank accounts plans to coincide with mine.
