Problem with killing rats?
I don't recall there ever being a shortage of rats in the world?

I prefer traps to poison for the same reason stated earlier: they don't die right when the eat it, they die after the go back to their den which is usually someplace you can't get to.

I read from somewhere else of glued on pistachios instead of peanut butter. Use the barely opened shells so the rat can smell the nut, but can't eat it without having to grab and tug.
SNAP!.....end of that problem!

Sure there can be a little mess, but with the damage they have already caused and the ever-present possibility of their being disease carriers, getting them as quickly as possible sounds good to me!
