I envision a scenario where the lure works so well you have an army of cats around your house. At the same time, all of your rats have come down to the crawlspace to check out the peanut butter. The stage is set...... and then...in the dead of night..... it happens!
A rat trips a trap but it misses. Between the sound of the trap snapping shut and the lucky rat running for his life, all the rats come flooding out of the crawl space in fear for their lives.
The cats, who have been amassing at your house, hear the noise and look up to see a veritable wave of rats storming at them.They, in turn, scatter like leaves in a storm, rushing all over the neighborhood.
The dogs in the neighborhood see the cats go screaming past them and start to bark, waking their owners, who wonder what's causing the dogs to bark. The owners hear the noises made by the cats as they are jumping fences, rattling garbage cans and such. Burglars! ...they think and call the police. The police station is inundated with so many calls at one time they believe this must be some type of gang terrorizing the neighborhood. So they send out multiple squad cars and even a helicopter and the next thing you know they're spotlighting your entire neighborhood for hours. It ends up on the local news.
Can't wait to hear how it goes.
estimate 1-2 rats from the amount of noise
this is not the first time it has happened - but first time i am not there much
