Hey, Rat-so. I warned you,,,,


Me: look at the size of that turd! Did a gecko pinch out that growler?
Her: No dumbass, that’s a rat turd.
Me: And just how thee hell do you know that?
Her: They call me,,,,, The Rat Whisper-er,, that’s how.

For the last couple years we have had our fair share of rat invasions. Don’t know why it happened when it did but they have found us and others here in the Breach.
Mrs. Barn is better at catching them than me so like everything else around here, whoever is better at it, gets the job. Hence the name Rat Whisper-er.
We prefer to use live traps, less messy because that's what Jesus would do. Plus Carl, the man who delivers beer, takes them to feed his snakes.

His snakes eat goooood! And if you think about it, and I’m sure you do/will, when a snake eats a rat, he eats everything there is including the contents of his bowels, stomach, all the hair, eyeballs, tail, fingers, gums, dingleberries, everything! And when you see a snake turd the only clue is a tuft of fur sticking out.
Mrs. Barn even goes the extra mile to fatten them up while waiting to be delivered to Carl. How sweet.
I have tried to block off all possible entries to the houses and I may have succeeded but we shall see.

While perusing the isles the other day I came across this rat trap presumably from the time of the Inquisition! Fuck,, don’t step on that in the middle of the night on the way to the can!

We are getting a lot of those little things lately. But the cats don't mind. It's like a treat. The only draw back is all the noise they make batting them around all night. I to have tried to fill every gape in the building. HOW DO THEY GET IN WITH 5 CATS much less survive.

We tried that stopping all the "entrances" routine. The rats started chewing through the window screens to get in. And there isn't even any food in there, when I'm away!
