The Battle Continues

I captured a foot soldier for the Rat Army on Canada Day.


Alas he battled well, but he has gone to meet the big Rat in the sky.

There is an amount of guilt associated with this but I did dispatched him in a quick and humane (or ratmane) manner.


My brother once said to me if you see one mouse, there is a minimum of six. So using this information I reset the trap. This Rat Army is amazing, they have figured out how to take the bate without setting off the trap. This has happened two or three more times.

In a meager attempt to out think the Rat Army I placed a sticky glue trap under the live trap and bated it again.

Foiled Again. I now believe I am battling a Team or Squad from the Rat Army. Last night my friend Lee mentioned that up north when facing a foe as clever as I have the locals will actually place the bate below the trigger. When the Rat approaches the bate his head sets off the trigger.

This will be my next approach.
