    so like, they may be rats and rats are smarter than mice. we have had to (and we legitimately hate that it’s come to this but like, these shitasses were tapdancing on the airducts to make fun of us) get marginally legal poisons (it’s not illegal to possess, but also not legal to buy. we have to drive to Reno to get it) and we tried everyfuckingthing before this it’s a warzone they come in from the rat fields and climb up into our rooves and not our houses because that’s where our cats are. I will try to remember to look for the name of the poison for you if you want, those fuckers.

      Have you tried one of those essential diffuser things, and use peppermint. Powerful smells like that “blind” rodents because their main sense is smell. We also couldn’t get the tap dancing chipmunks to get out of the attic. Tried everything, peppermint essential oil worked for us. Tried the things made for rodent repelling that smells, but they don’t really work as well. Lol

      Poison can kill nontarget animals, pets, owls, hawks, foxes, etc.
