For real Jim, it will be so much better if you let her do it and she succeeds.
I can't explain the pride and warm feeling I get all over when my little girl shoots something in the face.
For Layniebug to smash that sombitch with a crowbar, pure gold, leave the camera rolling.

Re made the Box Cave Of Death. Because it wasn't doing shit. Maybe too scary, and Stewart Large was afraid to go in. So I opened up the other end, put another 110 there, and bent the triggers down and put on a piece of corruplast like quack recommended, converting them into step pan triggers. It is now the Box Tunnel Of Death, and we will see how that wily little bastard likes the walk-through appearance of the mechanism of his demise.
I didn't want to post the same old boring videos of that fucker walking up sniffing it and running away. Hopefully more entertaining video from the RatCam will follow manana.

No one wants video proof that a rat is smarter than they are. You can probably show us a picture of a dead rat but unless it is on video, we are about to think of the boy who cried "wolf". Right now, I think that the rat owns you.

Probably, but at this point, if he doesn't have him on video, he ain't got him.

Motherfucker isn't even waiting until everyone's in bed, and it's barely dark. This one was at 8:35. He spent the better part of the evening, based on the clips, from about 8:30 to 4AM poking around the traps.

I'm mixing up a better bait concoction as we speak. It's got peanut butter, some sweet feed, some coon lure, and some corn. Don't ask me about the corn, it was just there, so I decided to use it. I will get that fucker in there.

Have you considered it might be a scent control issue of sorts? Maybe you should consider leaving it be for at least a week with out touching or getting near it. After a week, he'll be more comfortable with it and where it sits. Just a though, I could be wrong.

Assa you've convinced me to setup the trail camera tonight in my barn. I've seen a ton of rat signs in there.
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.” ― Samuel Adams

Just realized I have the memory card from the RatCam in my computer still. That's almost a guarantee that I'll catch the fucker tonight, and have no proof for you shitheels.

You'll just have to put on a reenactment.
To achieve success, one must possess dedication, passion and a boatload of decoys.

I'd setup a feeding station and feed the little SOB for a couple weeks. Fatten him up, get him comfortable, domesticate him, and slap trap on his ass one night.
Be patient. Outsmart the rat AT, or admit that a rat with a pea sized brain is outsmarting you.

I've heard that it's incredibly stupid to fuck around with a crazy man's head.
