Red tractor rat poison question

[Princess Pooper]

tell them you catch them live and then release back in the towns

yeah - you've gone vegan!

 

[farmerm]

Incineration, bagged and sent to your fallen stock facility, burried 6ft deep or put in the domestic waste bin where all options my recent inspection considered acceptable.....

Sat on pump tractor yesterday, massive rat ran across the yard with cat in pursuit. Rat made a failed attempt to climb the wall, cat got it, job done. That’s the first live rat I’ve seen in years and the reason I have 6 semi feral cats. Haven’t used poison for years as last time I did, put some of them teabag type things down a hole and covered it. Rats dug a new hole overnight ten yards away and out came there bag of poison, I walked round the corner just in time to see the dog swallows it ?‍One vet visit later, vowed never to put bait down again.

Those teabags have nearly buggered many dogs..,,,lift piece of tin and the dog runs in and snaffles it kind of thing......

If you have dogs, those yummy blue peanut butter based bags are the worst thing to be chucking around.

The disposal of dead rats and spent bait

It’s so much easier when you rely on Cats and Terriers for control

It would be a lot easier not being farm assured

And a cross on top

Ha ha with RIP on the cross

 

[spin cycle]

I was told your supposed to send them wherever the rest of your fallen stock goes.

thats what i do .....i'm not even RT

 

[Holsteinfriesian90]

That’s what we all do.

 

[yellow belly]

traps set all year round
avoid poison if possible although February is the month when rats get hungry and wary

 

[ifindoubtflatout]

Thank you...it’s ridiculous but if I’ll write it in the box just to satisfy them

I rang warrens and asked if they would collect a dead rat. One they’d stopped laughing they said they would. And that they collect dead rats from the council

so my policy is if ever we find a dead rat we double bag it and ring warrens

 

[AndrewM]

im not sure what the answer to disposing of spent bait is? they usually eat it all.

 

[tullah]

Of course no bait but feral cats. Impossible to worm the things. Job done.
