re: How do I get rid of rats in my backyard?

quote:

---

Get a large glass or metal jar/container. Big enough to hold several gallons of water at ten inches or so deep while leaving another foot or more from the top. Like a large tall crawfish pot.

Dig a hole and place the top of the pot at ground level. Take and oil up a metal rod and secure across the center of the container leaving the middle section clean. Take peanut butter and heavily coat the middle section of the rod.

They will try to walk the rod to get to the peanut butter, slip and fall into container. The cannot climb out and will succumb to severe over hydration.
