While y’all are slowly roasting, here is a little good old fashioned clean (but somewhat gory and violent) fun presented here for your entertainment (and you wondered where I got my on-line moniker):

Rat. Gun. Bullet. Some dissasembly required.
OOOOOOOOH Rat patrol where were you when I was growing up. Our barn was the original ‘farm’ barn on our property (about 50 acres total)and while the horse stall area had been redone the rest was left in less than ideal shape (not rotten but . . .) as a result and with all the horse feed/droppings we managed to end up with rats that made the exterminator run for his life (not jokeing at all). One of the horses stomped one into oblivation (imagine being shut into a small room with one of them). We started carrying pitchforks for our protection, until the exterminator finally established a workable game plan. Finally conquered that insidious vermin and we got another. Found out that Richard Speck

had spent the night in our barn (lucky us) from thence on we carried a rifle. How sad is that (1960s) to have to carry a gun to feed and care for your own horses on your own property (less than 2/10ths mile from our house within sight distance from the original farmhouse (rental property). Sad, that the criminals of the world have most of the rights.
But I digress. . .happy hunting (rats and cockroaches will outlive everything else).
Now to the original issue - we have to run the air for our son who can no longer sweat. It is not fun in the summer which is one reason we fled TX for more northerly climes. Little did we know it wouldn’t matter a whit. Guess nowhere is safe from glowball warming. . .
Oh and btw on the previous post - we live within 10 minutes of downtown Cincy - suburbia not in the middle of nowhere. So neither vermin should have been such a nasty issue.
i dont think the un would be to happy with your way of getting rid of vermin Rat Patrol,the rats should have a clean cage and be fed with cheese (french) every hour, and you should take them for walks, on a lead, back to the place you got them from, so they can have at least ten minutes doing what you tryed to stop them doing in the first place, or you could just let them go, (it must be hot im thinking like a un guy)
Or is Peiper blowing the warm air around with all them fucking fans hes got going.
Glowball warmening, Gore sezes so!
Even the most ardent animal lovers and environmentalist whackos can feel perfectly guilt-free when it comes to Visiting The Specter of Mister Death upon the local rodent population. The only good rat is a dead rat (unless cooked, see below).
Ratkills usually consisted of a group of willing hunters, armed with .22LRs (or pellet guns for the less experienced), and a barn full of feed corn or grain (and great hordes of nasty stinky rats). Procedure was for everyone to enter the dark barn quietly, and patiently wait. When the “animal noises” indicated sufficient target opportunities, one participant would hit the light switch, the rats would be briefly dazzled and confused, and the bullets would fly, and rats would die. Shut off the lights, wait, the repeat the cycle as required. Much more fun than using “passive” rat control procedures.
Don’t try this if there are horses, cattle or other “good” livestock present in the barn. Even if they don’t get hit, they will get seriously freaked out.
Now, after all of that, there is no sense in letting perfectly good ratflesh simply go to waste:

No, we never actually cooked or ate our “trophies”, but there were plenty of good joking about this very subject
Oh, heah, enjoy the beers AFTER the ratshoot, guns and alcohol don’t mix very well…
