[QUOTE="SoonerP226, post: 3589882, member: 26737"] Years ago, the neighbor decided to clean up his place, and knocked down some derelict buildings that his late father (the previous owner) had built decades earlier. About that same time, my only remaining outdoor cat disappeared. Guess where all those homeless rats and mice went? I could live with rodents if they didn't crap on everything they can't eat. They chewed up a $300 (at the time) wiring harness on my car, and just about everything else they could get their grubby little teeth on. I used to be soft-hearted, and hated killing them, but after they ate that wiring harness... I've trapped, poisoned, shot, and even stomped on the little bastards, killing them without even the slightest hint of remorse. Hell, when I lifted the hood of the car missing chunks of its $300 wiring harness and saw that big ol' rat folded in half by a Victor rat trap, I just about did the happy dance right there in the driveway. Rat traps and poison helped, but what really got them back under control was outdoor cats. There's no solution involving prey that's as effective as predators... [/QUOTE]
