My horse would have done the same thing. She hates other animals in "her" space. So far she has "bobbed" for a couple dozen crows, a cat, a turkeyfrustratedearthmother said:
,and tried to do a dog. Oh and a few squirrels.I suggest you try both at once. Posion will often make a big dent in the problem and works best as an outer defence. Place it away from areas used by livestock, pets and kids[quick treatment can usually save animals that get into it by accident] The thing with poision is that rats that are not killed by first exposure will avoid it in the future. If a second round is needed try a different poison. I use traps to clean up the rest and keep track of the population. I have traps set at all times, low catch low population. Usually a place [farm that is] is never rat free but if you can limit their food supply they will not multiply out of comtrol and both Poision Bait and traps are more effectiveHappy to be Me said:
). I used to worry that the dogs would eat the dead rats - but mine don't. They are so above that, lol.
