Please don’t use poison!!!!!!!!!

The rat eats it and the rat/ mouse is then eaten by a cat, fox or other animal. They die a slow horrible death from internal bleeding. It’s sadly common.

Fortunately, some areas have banned it. Hopefully, it will be banned nationwide.

You need a pest company to come and inspect for teeny tiny places they get in and to get rid of them.

@bikerbabe - I nearly added a comment about hoping this poison would be banned nationwide, but sadly I doubt that will happen anytime in the near future.  It's such an inhumane way to "solve" a problem.

Kudos to the places that have already banned its use.

my mom and stepfather lived in the country. The house was in a grove of tall old oak trees, front and back. Beautiful setting. With lots of squirrels.

well my folks didnt like squirrels. 😕

They said "there are too dam many." Lol. I think they wanted like three or four token squirrels that would pose and be cute outside their windows. 

So they set out baited live traps. 

When they had caught a few squirrels, they drove them a couple miles away and released them. 

I told them, in the time it takes you to do this, about fifty new ones are being born.

They were stubborn old people. Continued this goofiness the rest of their lives.

@Carmie ...Ugh, I would not want to go home..  Hopefully a professional can come out and get of the critters for you.

My friend has had two possum in her house...I am not kidding..one was aa larger one and was in her stove drawer, this was probably 8 years ago.  Just about two weeks ago when she got up in the morning there was a baby possum in her living room.   I just can not imagine that!

@monicakm ...and how did it get into the stove drawer?  I understand they get into the house thru openings, but why the stove drawer??
