i have never seen a rat here in the bustling metropolis of rochester new york. @blackholelectron have you seen many rats? you spend more time in the real city than me
Oh no. Thatās a bit shit. I wonder how that happened? The springs on these ones of mine scare the crap out of me.
Nah I donāt know that Iāve ever actually seen a real ass rat here. Weird now that you say it. Definitely mice but no rats that I recall.
I see rats the size of house cats regularly. Thereās definitely the sense that if they were to rebel against humankind they would slaughter everyone in new york overnight.
But we are too valuable to them.
RAT REPORT: three of my five traps were sprung last night but only one caught a rat.
Strangely, only one of the rats Iāve caught so far was a big fatty. The rest have been small juveniles. Hopefully I got mama and now Iām getting all her babies.
We are their livestock.
Maybe that wooden tunnel apparatus of mine forces them to approach the trap in a less safe way? Could it be something bigger setting them off?

I think my rats have gotten wise to the fact that peanut butter = death because my traps have been unmolested for two days. Iām gonna try chocolate sauce or Nutella.
Same. Or Iāve just killed all the rats. Nothing for 2 days here either. Not checked this morning tho. I reckon once there has been a near miss tho you are stuffed. If Crows can communicate that a dude in a cave man mask is bad-ass then maybe rats can too.
Rat1: Iām going over to Rustyās house for some food, BRB.
Rat2: see ya later dude
Some time later
Rat2: man, Rat1 never came back from getting food. I donāt think Iāll be going over there
Crows are smart as shit. A former coworker of mine trained a bunch of them to hang out in the back of another coworkers truck. Only took him a couple weeks. Theyād get all excited when they saw that truck and the truck owner hated it, it was the best.
Spoke too soon! Got another big fatty. Man they are looking healthy. Probably too busy eating their Bros to eat my PB.
Dude itās an island, as long as they do proper biosecurity they maybe could do it! I mean it almost never works unless youāre talking about a postage stamp sized island in the middle of the pacific, but still, itās theoretically possible!
My rats are living in a huge system of holes in my yard.
Theyāre definitely still in there. I saw oneās beady little eyes as I dropped a trap right in front of its hole.
The rats in my back yard/alley thing compromised the concrete retaining wall holding up our neighbors alley. Multiple tunnels through the concrete with big piles of excavated dirt below them.
SQUEALS SQUEALS SQUEALS, cāmon
