We had rats in the underfloor area of our home. I’m hoping that “had” is the right tense, here, and that this poor fellow is the last of his family, but, who knows, the rats are relentless. We think that one way they got in was through a hole they made by pulling a piece of plywood away from the wall. We electrocuted this poor fellow and I feel kind of bad about it. She, or he – I didn’t look very closely – was just trying to make a living, after all. However, rats don’t live well with humans, they are too smart and too tenacious. Rest in peace, dead rat.
