:
One night several years ago when I was doing extensively remodeling on this house a rat crawled over my ex wife's foot.
She let out a blood curdleing scream!!!!
The rat ran under the fridge.
And due to the remodeling I had the opening to the back of the bathtub open for access to plumbing.
I told her it was probably just a field mouse since they get pretty big here, but she swore up and down it was a rat!!!!
I dropped a just opened box of D-Con behind the fridge and in a little while heard a loud noise.
I went and looked, the fridge sets in the corner at a 45 degree angle, and the box was GONE!!!!!
So I went and got my .22 pistol, loaded with shot shells, and set on top the fridge, but the rat was cagey and knew I was there I guess.
So I dropped another box of D-Con behind the fridge, pretty soon another loud noise and that box was gone too. This was in the colder part of the year so I guess food was scarce outside.
Anyway a few days later the rat started to smell, fortuantely he had got under the fridge so it was easy to get rid of him, had he had not got under there I would have probably had to remove the tub since there's no way to get anything out from under it. He stunk to high heaven and back!!!!
I wish I could have shot the rat though, more fun that way and sporting as well.
