    i would seriously doubt it, get a rat trap or if you can put down poison safely

    As per forum charter only humane methods of pest control can be discussed. Poisoning is anything but humane.

    Edit: after polite PM'ing with the OP this thread has been reopened on their request.

    look for someone with ferrets and get some of the ferrets bedding off them ,spread it where you saw the rats and they should leave sharpish

    Same thing worked with cat litter for me, found their hole outside and started putting down used cat litter outside it. Haven't seen a rat since I started doing that!

    Sounds like a plan
