Hmmm the SPCA!! When I first moved to Cambridge I lived in an apartment for a while and outside there was a very large dumpster. One morning I went out to find 2 racoons trapped inside and I called them, they suggested I get a big board so they could "walk out". Do you know anyone who lives in an apartment that keeps a 6 foot piece of board! Sadly the racoons ended up being collected by the binmen later that morning!

Humane rat trap - £25 in Uk - rat poison - £2.00 -Sorry!! But didnt think I could have a live rat in a trap in the kitchen with my dogs - they would have got it out the trap and eaten it!!

I am an animal lover but do draw the line at rats ![EEK!](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/eek.gif)
We get the council in every autumn when the fields are harvested because they move into the garden and the garage barns etc, luckily they haven't come into the house as such although OH did find a dead one a few years ago in the attic![OhMy](https://britishexpats.com/forum/images/smilies/ohmy.gif)
The rat man puts bait down in pipes etc where the dogs can't get it
I hate to kill any animal but they do spread disease.

It's not really all that important, you know.
I had a similar argument with my brother when he was over recently. He was adamant that he wanted to go to Pottery Barn, where he'd been last time he came. I had, eventually, to shove the Yellow Pages in his face, just to prove that there is no branch of Pottery Barn anywhere near here.
