Bugger, think I have got a rat in my roof

Seen one around the back of the house for a while now, ignores bait an traps, noises in the roof tonight.

I'll put a couple pf snap traps up there in the morning if they don't work quickly it will have to be the council rat catcher if there is still such a thing.

Had rats in the roof when I moved in which the survey had not noticed. Made the mistake of calling Rentokil, cost a fortune and didn't fix it, local council did in a couple of visits.
