the text is from my earlier magpie problem.
What I dont want to do is kill any wildlife off. EG target rats or mice. Why do I think I have rats? Well this week end there has been a few extra holes dug and the spill has got to be two big for a mouse (size of stones).
OH ratsss

I used eradibait and it was great, worked quickly, non toxic and no problems since (although the cat helped too).

I've heard eradibat works well too, just get on to it straight away as where there's one there's another half douzen watching you :shock:
We had a problem with walls too Roughlee, i have now weldmeshed off all walls in thier area.
Expensive but has done the trick :)

I couldn't get that local but got a poison that's in blue blocks.. can't remember the name ratbait or something or other.. they work a treat though, cleared our rats then had a gap of about 2 months before anymore appeared.. saw one last week - only one since clearing them so baited again and haven't seen anymore. :)
