Intelegent sewer dwellers are a nuissance in local houses, local says!

It was an evening that no one can forget, the horror that I can remember that was caused by a mere sewer dwelling being – a rat. While I was watching TV in a dark living room, I leaned over to get the TV remote from his lap, with a blink of an eye; I noticed something speed across the living room carpet like Speedy Gonzalas from Bugs Bunny and Co. I questioned myself, am I dreaming? I pinched my cheek to see if I had one of those late night dreams, it turned out that I was still awake. Acting as a pouncing cat and with a cloth at hand, I waited countless seconds for the little trouble maker to make a movie it did. I then tried to catch the mouse, but little did I know, as soon as I was about to pounce on that feisty little critter, it bolted away before I could have catch it.

Even vacuuming the little “cereal bites” did not help as more would come later on. I then realized that my house was full of rats. My parents could not figure out how the rats were getting between the levels in the house. So my parents soon notified the pest control and they said to lay down the traps. The exterminator then said they were going through the walls. The moment he said that, the thought dawned on me…the rats were becoming like termite-being rodents! We bought many traps; sticky ones and poison ones as well as using cheese on the common trap. We laid out all the traps, within a day the sticky trap only caught a huge spider. Also, it turned out that our next door neighbours had the rat infestation, there solution, using a special type of cheese…parmesan.

 

Our neighbours from across the street did not have to worry about the rats since they had their enemy…the feline fiend. We were about to steal their cat, but that did not work, especially since it tried to get rid of the mice since the cat came around the house but could not get inside the house. We were also tempted to see if Petcetera would to a “rent-a-cat-for-a-day”, but it turned out that you can adopt, not borrow. Using the parmesan worked, but then the rats became smarter when some of there friends did not come back from some of the daily excursions. So our final weapon was to use the ultrasonic rat removers, rats can hear the high pitched sounds, but humans apparently could not, well that was not my case since we put the device where we found the entrance from the rats. After that, no rat dared to approach the “NO Rat’s allowed” domain. At least the house was free of “landmines” full of lime disease.
