''Rats''

dad was shooting rats in a barn with a .22 ,killed em good!! until he took some bullet shrapnel in his forehead. That ****ed and left a mark too!!! probley shouldnt get rid of yer rats like that! the soap and bounce sound good!

 

you could buy a couple hundred mousetraps andoutline the perimeter of the entire car with em so they cant get too it without stepping on a mousetrap. get em used on ebay or some5thing and you can do it pretty cheap. use two rows and stagger them like bricks in a wall

 

In my 2.5 car garage, I would set out 6 nasty snap traps and maybe 4 large glue traps at a time. I used blobs of peanut ****er for bait, gotta set it real easy on the snap traps. Keep that up for 2 weeks or so and you'll see a big decline in rat activity, you have to check the traps every day.

COFFEE !!!!! It gets this HAIRY LITTLE ****ER every morning >>>>.

Yep ,I've heard this from the" Lead Slinger "himself.. he swears by it.

 

I have used Irish Spring to keep the critters out. It does seem to work!

 

RATS - hell ya i love em! - a good running 454 or 427 is loads of neck snappin fun!

oh you are talkin rodents. i dont like those

***** i place little cups filled with anti freeze around the corners of the storage building & my garage & i watch em awhile. at first there are little foot prints leaving some of the cups then pretty soon nothing. --- i get little plastic cups from places like taco johns to put sauce in.

 

Whoa! I just got my old Corvette out for it's once a month cruise. It sits in a carport, next to a wood fence with a car cover over it. So it fires up pretty quickly, and as I'm warming it up I see something fly past the driver's window! Then another one flies by, like 3 feet off the ground, they're rats! Scared the **** out of me! I backed out into the driveway, checked out the interior, no damage there. Where the heck were these thing hiding? Weird.

 

I dunno if Irish Spring here in Canada is different than anywhere else but the mice ate mine!

 

A friend got an old transformer from a large neon sign. Wired it to a piece of expanded metal and placed it in the middle of the barn. With a large amount of very dry corn and other stuff on it. The transformers positive lead ran to a piece of pipe mounted to an old brake drum sitting on a plastic milk crate in the middle of the metal.

It will vaporize a mouse. Nothing left but a soot mark on the floor. Don't let the kids play near it.

 

My daughter put Irish Spring Soap in her car. Mice ate it.

 

I've never had any rodent problems in my shop. I use several boxes of Decon pellets augmented by several old fashioned spring traps. I've also heard of mice using dryer sheets as nesting material.

I dislike rodents and rodent rods,I am a traditionalist when it comes to traps,I use the spring loaded type with a generous dollop of peanut ****er,it gets them ever time. HRP

 

This is so 2008. A fork, some melting cheese......... Fondue.

 

We were going to remote fly in fish camps and often find there are mice if no one was there in awhile. We can clean the mice up in the first night & day with mouse traps and peanut ****er. Best was 3 in a half hour. We could hear the 3 traps snapping while sitting at the fire. A exterminator told me that mice do not have good vision so they tend to follow the walls. We found it effective to set the boxes & coolers on an angle that funnel them to the wall & put the trap close to the gap between the box and the wall. The box on the diagonal steers them to the wall in both directions. They are persistent.
