How to Get Rid of Rats
1. Moth Balls
Mothballs tend to repel the rats. These are readily available in the market and are easy-to-use. Place a few in your attic to keep the rats away.
Note: Avoid placing these mothballs inside the house as its smell is harmful to humans. Take proper care that you do not touch it with bare hands.
2. Ammonia
Mix 2 spoons of detergent, a quarter glass of water and 2 cups of regular ammonia in a bowl. Place it where rats appear frequently.
Since rats can’t stand the smell of ammonia; hence, this remedy will do the job.
3. Peppermint Oil
Peppermint oil can be used to prevent rats as they can’t stand its pungent smell. All you have to do is dip some cotton balls in the peppermint oil and place them in the rat-prone area. It will surely give satisfactory results.
Alternatively, citronella and castor oil can also be used.
Or else, grow mint plants around the boundaries of your home.
4. Owl’s Feather
Owl’s feather will scare the rats and force them to run away. Try placing some owl’s feather inside the holes of these intruders.
Alternatively, if you can’t find one, keep some plastic snakes in your garden to get rid of rats in the yard.
5. Pepper
The pungent smell of pepper makes it hard for the rats to breathe and threatens their survival. Simply sprinkle some crushed pepper around the corners and the holes where they reside. You will notice positive results. Repeat the process if necessary.
6. Bay Leaf
Rats think of bay leaf as their food and tend to eat it. But, it actually kills them.
Put some bay leaves in the rat-prone area. Keep repeating the process until all of them are gone.
7. Onions
It is a very effective remedy to get rid of rats naturally. The smell of onions is odious to these nasty rodents. Just slice an onion and keep it inside or near their holes.
8. Make Your Own Trap
Trapping is one of the best ways to get rid of rats fast. You can take a humane trap and put bait in it to attract the rat. Peanut butter and cheese are the rat’s favorite. As the rat tries to eat this, it will be caught in the trap. After this, you can leave it in the woods or far away from your home so that it never comes back.
Note: You can add boric acid in the peanut butter to make it more effective.
Note: Wear latex gloves while using this remedy.
9. Dried Snake Litter/ Cat Litter
Buy some of the dried snake litter from a pet store or zoo and keep it near the places where rats are more likely to visit. Rats will not come there again because of the fear of snake.
Alternatively, you can also use cat’s litter. However, if the rat is infected with toxoplasmosis, it strangely may actually be attracted to cats and cat litter (a very weird side effect of the disease)
Note: Keep it out of the reach of pets and children.
