Respect for God's Rats"I just finished reading your journal, and I wanted to say that while I think it's very honourable that you respect God's creatures and I'm glad you're a man of such conscience, YOU'RE CRAZY!
You CAN NOT let a foot long rat live in your attic! You MUST get it out! And I've got 3 VERY good reasons why!
1. Rats are dangerous, especially wild ones. They attack people, and I'm not kidding! If you get up in the middle of the night to get a glass of water and accidentally come across it, it will bite you and that's very bad because of reason #2!
2. Rats carry diseases!!! They are filthy and infectious and dangerous to humans! They carry fleas and mites as well, which may very well be what's causeing a lot of your allergy problems! They transmit HIV and other VERY SERIOUS diseases, and you could die! I don't want you to die!!
3. Plugging a hole isn't going to help. You have to get it out of the appartment all together because a little bit of dry wall isn't going to deter an R.O.U.S. from entering your appartment to eat your food stuffs! At most it'll slow him down for 24 hours until he can chew out a new hole somewhere else, like under your bed!
SO! Now that I've given you all my reasons, I've got a solution. Get a humane trap. One of those little cage-y things that you put the bait in the back of and when he walks in, the door slams shut behind him. Once he's caught, take him for a ride to your local park and set him free. No sreaming, no dieing, no infectious disease, and no patching a new hole everyday when you get home from work! YAY!" -- Journal Reader
