Need to poison rats eating in squirrel feeder...


At the risk of sounding too hippie for this board, rat poison is terrible. It kills so many unintended animals. The rats eat the the poison and stagger out into the yard/woods, then owls, foxes, bobcats, hawks, and a tons of other animals eat them and die too.

You'd be better off trying to figure out some way to make the feeder more rat-proof. Put it so the squirrels have to jump a short distance to it. Put some kind of catcher under it to keep spilled food off the ground. Shoot the rats you see.
