If there are enough of them that they actually present targets, you will never get on top of them by shooting.











A more realistic and effective approach is, actually, poison. There are a number of eco-friendly poisons available that will not harm predators that eat the dead rats. I cannot remember the one we used, but just do some "googling". While the poison spoiled my fun, it did finally eliminate the rats. Good luck.
"Trophy Hunters" suck !

Did you get the full body taxiderm... or just the heads mounted?
