Get a cat or a snake for pet for a little while and just the present of those been in ur house and the rat will go by by at least I have a friend and that work for him I also had snakes at pet few years back and I never notice any critters while having them as a pet and when u feel ur issues is over u can find them a new home

If you have a friend who has a cat , ask that friend for a burlap bag full of urinated cat litter and drag it around the perimeter of your house while bouncing it up and down onto the pavement , it will release the ammonia trace of the cats urine and this can deter rodents!!! Note this method is not recommended for indoor use!!!!

Set traps along the walls Rats/Mice travel along walls mostly. Glue traps are easier with removal then snap traps but a snap trap is more humane.
What kind of place is the infestation in?

 

[mbg75]

Hire an exterminator.

 

[JimmyR1rider]

Glue traps, plastic bags and a shovel.

if its an infestation you should hire a professional. Any other option is a waste of time and money. Remember they have been around longer then we have for a reason. They are pretty hard to get ride of. I heard of people moving out instead... lol

Even when they are starved they end up eating each other to survive...

The rats at work have been climbing up in the cars and causing havoc with the engine wiring and such. We are trying to think of a way to get rid of them. It is a real big PITA.

If its outside you can anchors rat bait stations outside. You use a waxed based poison. Set the stations around the perimeter of the property along the fence buildings. look for borrows or woodpiles place stations near there.
Make sure you anchor them very important.

I used to work for an exterminator. It was my first job.

 

[saltwaterinbrooklyn]

Oh ok lol

I work in upper Manhattan. The rats can get big.

 

[kres1024]

Yea those manhattan rats are big they would probably eat a cat if you got one ..

find out what mta is using. haven't seen big rats in the midtown stations for some time now and every now and then on my way to work i see one of these guys.

Actually Brendan what we had done at my firehouse I first worked at in Manhattan worked pretty well. We had the same issue especially in the winter. They crawl up into the engine compartment for the heat and chew on the harnesses.

We filled a garbage can with water, covered the top with layer of styrofoam peanuts, put a plank of wood so they could climb up into the can and put peanut butter and other things on a piece of cardboard in the middle of the can. They crawl up and try to walk to the bait, fall in and drown. Just make sure the top rim of the can is at least 6-10 inches above the water line depending on the size of the rats. Check it daily.
