Im going to be that guy. You should stop using poisons. The rats go die somewhere and then get eating buy other animals...birds, cats, ... Then those other animals die also and it just goes up the chain.

I like the sticky paper if i can't get the traps to work. I had to catch a few mice that got into my cab and I didn't want the blood on my carpet from the traps.

When I got my 4R it was a bit sluggish on the throttle. I opened the hood and upon further inspection I opened up the airbox. No joke it was packed to the gills and half way up the snorkel with dog food. The channels in the hood were also packed. And the inside of the frame rails underneath. Sat over the winter in the previous owners garage where there was a bag of dog food available and the mice/whatever decided to fill the truck with it. I pulled the air box out and poured it all out on the ground and it was about a 18" round x 5" high pile. Thankfully no wires were munched on but that was one of the weirdest things I've seen on a car.

I agree, I bought the property next to my house & it has a garage on it. The garage was overrun with mice & the property overrun with Poison Oak, Sumac & Ivy. I used poison on the plants too. I needed to go Nuclear on the property. After the poisonous plants & rodents are manageable I will use safer methods.

OMG! thats soo gross haha. need a bio suit for that one.


Look into the method using a 5gal bucket half filled with water and smear peanut butter inside. You make some kinda ramp up the bucket and they jump/fall in trying to get the peanut butter and drown. We got like 20 one night back in the day.
