Collier County, Naples Rat Control Situation:
Hello David, We are a warehouse in Naples FL. That deals with telecommunications. We have switch room full of wires and supplies for telephones and Internet supplies. We recently started seen Feces on our shop floor; we also have several huge bay doors but we keep no food or anything like that in the warehouse. It looks as though the rat is only staying in the shop we have not found any feces in our offices or upstairs offices. We have put out liquid poison and hard poison like bars, pellets, and etc. I have even gone to the extreme of a trail deer camera and peanut butter to see if we could get a look at this thing leaving feces. I've Google the feces I've found and came up with roof rat we even have broken the feces up and it looks like its eat crickets an Jun bugs . I guess tonight I will try a hotdog and trail camera again to see if I can get a shot of the rat or thing that is leaving feces everywhere.
Hi David, I was cringing reading your site about rats... I fear them the most of all 4 legged creatures! I couldn't even look at the pictures of them. On that note... I'm just starting to smell a foul scent in a certain area of our home, downstairs. My gut tells me its a dead rat somewhere in the walls. To get a second opinion, I asked our gardener to come inside and take a whiff for himself. I didn't tell him what I thought it was, and he immediately said, "it smells like you have a dead rat somewhere in your walls or in the floor." :-( I'm so disgusted by this... Do you travel to Naples in Southern Florida? If not, can you pls recommend someone good to take care of this problem? Thank you so very much for your expertise and time. Its very much appreciated!

What Are The Best Baits To Use To Trap A Rat?
If you have the right kind of bait in place, trapping rats becomes relatively easy. These animals are naturally curious and become fearless when they see eye-catching foods. To remove them from your home, all you have to do is take advantage of this and trap as many rats as you can.
Are you looking for the best bait ideas that will help you trap all the rats in your house? Right here, we will be sharing some for you. But first, there is a particular thing you need to put in place if you want this to be effective. The first thing you need to do is to seal up every possible entry hole into your house to prevent more rats from gaining entrance. Once that is done, you can then go ahead to trap the rats in your house.
When it comes to rat baits, peanut butter is one of the best. This particular bait attracts rats more than any other type of bait. Apart from having a strong smell, it is easy to set on traps that you intend to use to capture the rats.
Other types of baits include pineapple, chocolate, bacon, whole nuts, berries, dried fruit, gumdrops, and many more. Each of these baits will help you to achieve exactly what you want without putting you through the stress of having to replace them over and over again just to help attract rats.
Having realized this, all you have to do is get one of these baits and place it on the trap in a manner that the rats passing will be able to see it and will want to have it.
