Last year our son said there was an animal getting into the basement. Justin said it was a "big" animal. We couldn't imagine how a big animal could get in the basement. And when I asked Justin about the blockage he put on the shelf, he said, "It's too big to squeeze through there.
Well to make a long story short I saw this "big animal" the other day, and it's still around, and I know how it gets into the basement. But I don't know what it is!!! It seems like it's a rat, yet it is TOO BIG to be a rat.
When I saw it, it wasn't running, it was kind of waddling toward the hole. Now we have to figure out how to get rid of it. I thought about blocking the hole with a brick, but I would rather block him "out" then block him in.
Then we thought about getting some poison, but we don't want it to die and stink up the house. I looked at the rat traps on google images but the traps are crazy looking, and Vlad says rats are too smart for traps.
Suggestions???
Check out the hole!
