The rats are back again!
There is an increase in rat sightings ever the constructions started (opposite our house).
We decided to take action after we saw different rats (different sizes) at home every night.
I was scared by the baby rat weeks ago in my toilet one night (it was just right beside me in the toilet), I was so shocked I screamed and the moment I opened the door, it escaped!
The next day, we sighted another one - this one was much bigger than the 'baby' one I saw.
On Monday, one of them bite off a packet of our food !
On Tuesday, Roland saw an even bigger one, much bigger than the first and second!
So yesterday, we decided to put a mouse trap (Glue type).
We put honey stars, ikan bilis
but did not manage to lure the rats out.
Thus I put bits of chocolate chip cookies and within 10 minutes, we caught one!
It shrieked loudly and was struggling really hard.
This is the medium one, much bigger than my palm!
We (Roland actually) threw it into a plastic bag and threw away.
Sorry rats, we cannot afford to keep you in our house - you may contaminate our food (I can still forgive you) but I cannot allow you to harm my little boys.
* 南无阿弥托佛 x3 *chanting for you, please rest in peace, please tell your friends and families to move away to prevent more reunion.
We feel really bad to do this to you :(
