I have a rat infestation in my apartment. What's the best way to get rid of them?

Wow, that’s really nasty!  I’m really sorry you’re having that problem, and I want to help you get rid of them.  One thing you could try is making a big trap that you put the food in, but it’s also quite disgusting.  You could also hire a professional exterminator to come over and handle it.  Do you have a pest control company in your area?

It sounds like you want to take steps to reduce the number of rats that can live in your home. Here are a few ideas:

-Remove food sources, such as by storing food properly and feeding your cat indoors
-Remove water sources, such as by emptying any unattended bowls of water
-Look for signs of the presence of rats, such as droppings, trails, or signs of chewing and gnawing
