I don't agree with putting out poison because it works it's way up the food chain. No one likes rats, but eagles and owls and bobcats depend on them. So you see one, big deal, they are everywhere.
@Cabin_Mama :
It's a big deal to me because I've already said growing up we never had a mouse or rat in the house or OUTSIDE that anybody ever saw . And same thing since I have been married . Far as I'm concerned the eagles & owls can eat all the mice & rats they desire in the woods & fields & at your place but mine is off limits . If you have mice or rats your gonna have snakes .I 100 % do not do snakes , mice or rats .
