Get a one foot long piece of 2 inch diameter plastic plumbers pipe and seal one end,(before sealing) about 2 or 3 inches back from one end superglue a razorblade or boxcutter blade (sharp side upwards) put a lump of cheese on the side of the pipe that is sealed do this for at least 3 days the rat will stretch over the blade and pick up the cheese, and go away returning the next day for more cheese, on the fourth day do not put any cheese in the pipe the rat will come in stretch over the blade and twist it's neck from left to right saying "where the F***s the cheese" and it's head will drop off,much more environmentally friendly don't you think. ;{)
