[QUOTE="MattR, post: 6947904, member: 19950"] We haven't got a bad rat problem, but there always seem to be some around and never quite get on top of them. This spring some have found their way into a grain store and caused a nuisance. Been wondering whether it would be worth getting a couple terriers (we haven't had any dogs for a few years) - as pets of course but wondering how effective they really would be at keeping rat numbers at bay. For instance would a couple good ratting dogs left to their own devices around the yard find burrows etc that I hadn't noticed? And would the presence of a couple active dogs around the yard deter rats from moving in to the yard/buildings area in the winter in the first place? [/QUOTE]
