    1. True! I am sad that here some die because of eating poissoned rats and mice. I wish this would be more controlled but well, is difficult! I also had a rat invasion in my terrace coming from the woods right next to my house and I used humane traps to relocate them but is not something everybody would do... Posted 3 years ago
