[QUOTE="Dsth, post: 1652073, member: 38038"] I agree with wbvs58 that your first step needs to be isolating you feed supply so it is not accessible to the rodents. If they went through a 50 lb. bag of feed overnight, you probably have a really big population of rodents there. Cats will help a great deal but I have seen younger cats run away from large rats, so trying to find good hunting cats that are going to stay at you farm may be a challenge by itself. I would recommend the use of poisons if you don't have pets that you need to worry about. Next alternative would be to get live traps. I have seen commercially made traps and some creative home made traps that catch several rodent at a time. Good luck [/QUOTE]
