Problem
[ Dragan Dejkovic ]   Created: 11/9/11   Closing date: 12/9/11

Ugly RatRats are so clever and unpoisonable that it's too difficult to get rid of them once they've come around.

Could anybody suggest a creative solution to the rats problem?

Turn cleverness of rats against them. When a rat gets caught harmfully, it starts squeaking very loud. It's a "Danger!" signal to other rats. Very often rats leave the palce after the very first such "Danger!" signal.

I used "Alt" glue to achieve this effect and get rid of rats when I lived in India. I didn't find it on Amazon, unfortunately. I believe, the Catchmaster glue boards may serve the purpose as well.

This is a technology-based modification of the Vadim's idea. Catch a rat in a somewhat harmful way and record her "Danger!" cry. Play the recording laudly whenever and wherever you need to get rid of rats.
