These rats are driving me Craaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaazy!!!
They're living in my ceiling and keeping me up all night, scratching, running, jumping, gnawing and the real estate are taking their fine time doing anything about it, meanwhile i'm getting a bit irrational, terrified they'll get in the house and scurry across my bed during the night! or worse chew through wires and start a fire ahhhhh!
Going a bit bonkers sorry just needed to vent somewhere!
I feel so helpless especially because our roof has no manhole so I can't even put traps up there in the mean time, short of getting on the roof and getting in there or whatever (well beyond my capabilities!)
We have the same issue with possums. And they also die up there stinking the whole house out ewwwww! Our land lords say we just have to live with them... they are not going to do anything about it... oh well, we're out of here soon... we paid minimal rent for an otehrwise great BIG house so i guess you have to take the good with the bad.
If you're close to Bunnings, buy some "Tomcat" Rat Baits. They are in blocks and pretty cheap.
The next problem is finding a way to get the baits in the roof. If the rats can get in there I'm sure there is a way.
Alternatively, if you have a spare $120-$160 you can call someone out and get reimbursed from the realestate.
We had the same problem only 2 weeks ago, except they got into the house! It scared the living daylights out of me. We eventually caught them with rat traps. Hope you can find a way to get rid of them soon.
