Few days ago a fat rat entered our home though our garage don't know why in 10 plus years this happens first time . Well, my mom put them sticky trap thing and did not know the rat was pregnate gave birth to babies and one of them got trapped from it's back side my mom asked me to kill it i was not strong enough to kill a baby rat and so my mom threw it away the baby rat in a bag still making noise she says she doesn't want to live with rats . and I'm saddened to do anything if more baby rats get trapped in those sticky things . what should I do?

See if you can convince your family to buy these. Traps the rat without killing it, so then you can release them somewhere else.

Only real option besides killing them. But, if they are trapped in glue traps, killing them is far more humane than leaving them to suffer.



Eat them.

I found these videos easily, but dormouse is also traditional recipe still eaten in Europe as well... Bon Appetit!

Don't use poison or glue traps they're pretty disgusting/cruel. My family used glue traps once when i was 10, the poor mouse chewed it's own legs off and face planted in the glue, was still alive the next day. Use the old fashion bait traps, quick and painless.

For baby rats, you could probably use the plastic ones that are designed for mice. Rats are sometimes too strong for them and can break out, but they should work for the babies.

You must not only destroy the rats, but find their under cities! Otherwise they may utterly destroy your entire city. Those Skaven scourge!

But wait until the Chaos show up, then you in real trouble. Upgrade those walls ASAP!

Where can I find those?If there not certain stores? 

Amazon and Home Depot have them online. If you want to physically go to a store, I can't like... find them in your area for you. You'll have to do a little leg work here.

Put the rat stuck in the glue trap into an air-tight bag. Suffocate them that way.
