Dealing with rats

Philippines
June 23, 2020 7:56am CST
Finally had it with these rats roaming around and eating what they could salvage. So I brought a few fly papers and for the moment I was able to get 18 small rats since yesterday. So far no big one hasn't entered our home recently unless pipehole for the releasing washing machine water is open. I was tempted to use a rat poison but I feared the dogs might accidentally eat it. But this is for the big ones I hear running off inside the ceiling. What kind of pest problem you're dealing with today? Have a nice day

Be careful using poison if you have other animals. If they come in contact with a rat which has ingested the poison they could get ill.

I have rats right now too. But I dont think they are that bad. Check out ratx if you can get it there. I have never used it but it is supposed to be safe around pets even if they eat it or the rat.

My smallest dog was able to capture one or two rats only that I was aware of @wolfgirl569

We use Racumin. Have you heard of it? The rats after they consume it go out in the open and find something to drink. They're usually die in the canal.
