Thread Revival Time
Talking to a neighbour earlier, she told me that she's had rats in her flat! She's a very tidy tenant, so I'm quite surprised. She has a few cats though and according to the tenant they ate through all her dried cat nibbles and biscuits. She said she seen one the other week on her kitchen surface!!
The housing association have put wire mesh over drains and stuff, but they are still lurking. I thought on hearing this that I'd be safe, as unlike her my flat's an upstairs one, but she told me her above her neighbour had a t-shirt chewed by rats the other week. and he's heard rats scuttering around in his loft area.
I'm now in fear I might get invaded! I have a terrier type dog, but I don't think he's ever seen a rat and would probably run away if he did see one.
I don't think I've had them in my flat yet as I have a habit of taking fresh veg' out my shopping bag and leaving it on the floor on top of my stairs. So far I haven't seen signs of nibbling, so I suppose that's a good sign.🐀
