Re: anyone esle seen huge rats in accy and where
when i lived in springhill, they were turning that old church into the pool club, there were loads of field mice that appeared, not as bad as rats though!

Re: anyone esle seen huge rats in accy and where
stupid rats
the house next door to us recently got repaired and the cellar was cemented
they've all decided to move in with me and provide me company
i'll show them who's boss.. dont worry matey's u wont b living for long...
the poison the council come around adn put is just useless - either that or there's just so damn many of them!!!
there's one possibly two loitering around the house here - i've recently filled all the holes possible with foam filler and i think it maybe the one that got left out in the cold and left to play chicken wiht the evil mani...

Re: anyone esle seen huge rats in accy and where
We recently had one living in the wall cavity of our kitchen.It got in a small gap where the outlet pipe for the washer is.My wife saw it taking all the nuts off the bird table then running into the hole.A man from the council came and put poision in and we got rid of it.It was about the size of a kitten but apparently the can squeeze into a hole the size of a 50p.Everything has been blocked up now and thankfully we have had no trouble since.

Re: anyone esle seen huge rats in accy and where
Walk along the path in milnshaw park that separates Asda with the lodge there are plenty down there. The other day I was nervously walking this path when a rat walked across in front of me (coming from Asda car park) with a large piece of bread in it's mouth and instead of going straight across into the lodge as I would have expected it walked down the path that leads to Hyndburn road. I couldn't help screaming as I hate the things and am actually heaving writing this at the thought of it!

I think they are qute immune to the poison these days. Is it blue stuff? I've actually seen blue rat pooh with them seeming totally indifferent to it. Maybe they think it's a new kind of food seasoning.
They do seem to breed quite prolificlly too.
Good luck in your battle against the disgusting things.
Too much free food available for them around Accy. The ones near Asda know no fear.

Re: anyone esle seen huge rats in accy and where
I see rats every day as i'm walking around milnshaw park. Poison has been put down for them at the lower end of the park but not at the top where i see them.

Rats outnumber people. I'm not sure of the ratio but it's scary.

I read it was 4:1, and we are never more than 7 feet away from them!
I've never seen them up here, but l used to see them everyday on my way to work at Hyde Park Corner in London.
Thankfully I'm not the Pied Piper.
