The latest:
It isn't rats after all, but mice. The mouse glue traps didn't work...but the Victor spring traps do. (Reason in a moment).
Last night, we sealed up all food, cleaned the counters, and set traps around the second tortilla bag. Within ten minutes of lights out, THWACK! Clean up mess. Fifteen minutes later, THWACK! Clean uup mess, good night's sleep.
According to some of my wife's (animal research) co-workers, rodents can smell human scent on a trap if you touch it bare-handed. Two latex gloves later, two dead mice.
Nothing new this morning.
The war rages on, but we've one a battle.
