[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP. Will look into hot pepper feed. We are in Arlington. Arlington has rats. We hadn't seen any for a few years though. [/quote] Ewww. Do you have rats in your houses too? We don't have that issue in the burbs.[/quote] Nope - rats are everywhere, including suburbs and rural areas. In denser housing you are more likely to actually notice them, just as you are more likely to notice people out and about. But anywhere there are people living, there are rats. Townhouses and rowhouses have the hardest time controlling rats because they have high density but individual trash management and yard care. (Apartments have high density but the rats congregate near the central trash which makes them easier to control.) That's why many townhouse complexes ban bird feeders. [/quote]
