Squirrel_Basher 17,103 Posted December 17, 2009 Report Share Posted December 17, 2009 Ive been storing a few deer in the lockup over night recently just to chill them down before they go to the dealer and i noticed the signs of a rat coming under the door .You know ,the shiney mark on the concrete ,footprints and a tail drag in a bit of spilt blood .Well today he met his match in the form of a well placed fen .No need to cover here as its in doors so i placed it beneath one of the hanging deer .Went to get a bite to eat and came back to fetch the kit for tomorrows stalk and found a decent sized rodent perfectly killed in the fen ,less than 20 minutes since setting .This rat trapping game is no where near as stressful as is made out by some people on here ,lol.

I tend to use chocolate as rat bait usually, works pretty well on the whole and easier to carry around than a Deer carcase Quote Link to post
