Over the course of this week, we have found 2 dead rats. 1 the cat brought in through his cat flap 🤢 and the other I found just now whilst hanging out washing. We suspect the cat is killing them.
What should we do now? We have a very small garden which has a neighbouring garden on both sides & 1 at the bottom. The garden at the bottom has an aviary & ducks, as well as dogs & cats, so we wonder if the problem may stem from there?
I was thinking of bringing in my tomato plants, although reluctant to do that as loads of tomatoes still green. Also try & cut the grass but it is wet so not easy. Anything else we can try? The whole thing is rather horrible, although we are kind of used to dead mice & birds as the cat is quite the hunter.
Thanks for reading & any advice!
