I have just taken over a lease on a farm that is overrun with rats. They say for every one you see there are 100 more....well yesterday I seen 6.....AAACCCKKK!
Now here lies my dilemma. I've been doing alot of research on the types of poison and there are ones that kill them with an abundance of calcium and others that kill in other ways. Well basically my 2 options are to poison them and put the neighbourhood dogs and cats at risk for residual poisoning or use a different poison and put the wild birds at risk. It in my opinion is a lose lose situation. I would prefer to get rid of them differently but I don't know what my other options are. I have a friend with a mini schnauser(sp) who brings her for a visit but she only manages 3-4 on a good day. I was told by an old timer to get guinny hens???
Any input would be very much appreciated.
