Have you considered getting a few cats to delegate the war effort? They are supposed to possess an evolutionary drive to hunt vermin.
Just don't get both cats and owls; they don't get along and owls are a bitch to train, though close air support would be nice.

If you're more of a dog person, perhaps a rat terrier would be worth looking into.
Per wikipedia :
One source claims that a single terrier killed 2,501 rats in a seven-hour period in a rat-infested barn (an average of one rat every ten seconds)
Man, that doggy is the absolute pest remover!
Probably gained a few levels in the process.

That is how you become a legend among rats. A spooky bed time story passed down from parent rat to child. Watch out for the wicked dog of the seven hour carnage.

The Only Thing they Fear is You was playing in the barn that day.

Yeah, terriers are awesome. My ma has two perfectly good white labs that have killed some rats and want more. I guess one pup got one the other day as I found blood all over by the hose. But sadly the pups get yelled at for doing a duty for farm and poultry. I hear ma and pa clap to warn the rats out of the dog run and then they watch the woofs to make sure their rodent overlords come to no harm..

Ugh! Is gog that downhill that we have turned this into a rodent politics?

Yeah has to be. As I watch the pages load I notice it says tracker something or other a few times before the page loads. I'd say GOG is full of trackers.

It's not GOG, it's the 'Dex. It automatically puts its affiliate link whenever a gog site is posted.

Cats are good against mice, rats are usually too big for them.
Dogs all the way, take a look by yourself:

This guy also use minks against rats, mainly to flush them out of their holes for the dogs to kill.
(If you don't know, minks are a type of wild ferrets, tamed in this case)

I've seen his vids he has a pretty good team and resources. Without the animals it would take longer. Most sane people would get rid of vermin; people like my parents are obviously not sane. I haven't taken any extended vids/pics of the property lately (couldn't really upload them anyway with my shitty service) but there are so many rodent holes on the little hill the house is on it must be in the hundreds. I don't see how the place hasn't caved in tbh. So much gravel and concrete dug out as well.

Hopefully won't encounter FEV mutated rats...
:shredder:
Syl Can minks even be tamed?
Looks like he managed to do it, which is quite an achievement.

Your Mind
I noticed links to gog here don't work for me lately. Why?
Where?
This link, for example.

Does it work for you?

If you're using uBlock, it's been blocking our GOG links for several years because it's retardedly blocking the affiliate links. Tell it to exempt Codex links to GOG as otherwise the Codex's not getting credited with any affiliate link sales either. There's no other tracking on the GOG links except for them to attribute any affiliate link sales to the Codex.
