You don't even have to leave the comfort of your home to get your killin' (http://home1.gte.net/res0ew1k/rat_bastards.htm)  on.

He is so poetic about his garage sniping experiences.  I noticed he was featured on the program "Unscrewed."

Any chance, that we by chance misunderstood MrBlack's claims to be an Ubersniper?  Sure, this guy can spell and his imagination and only one personality, but could it be MrBlack modeled himself after this expert anti-rat scout sniper?  Maybe....

Shooting vermin I can understand (especially in its own basement).....but taking pics of his prizes and putting them on a website as trophies...it's as weird as grown up men acting as virtual pilots and describing their kills at great lengths in their squadops AAR :D

Maybe this guy could just wash himself and his cave a coupe of times a year and his problem would go away by itself....maybe not as fun as shooting the litle buggers tho.

Hold on, where does he live?  I live in South Florida in very close proximity to the Everglades.  It is lovely but also abundant in all manner of flora and fauna.

Mice and rats fancy human dwellings and if allowed to run rampant will absolutely run you out of home and hearth.

A few years ago I ran into a similar situation when we moved into our current home which was abandoned for about 2 years before we purchased it and remodelled.

The house was absolutely infested with rodents.  This presents a serious health risk due to the many viruses brought on by rodents.  Hunta virus, bubonic plague etc.

we had the house profesionally exterminated and all the rat droppings and urine in the attic professionally cleaned.

When we moved in we heard scampering in the attic.  we again had the exterminators in.  They placed all manner of traps and devices to little avail.

The best solution turned out to be:

1. beer

2. comfortable sniper spot

3. single pump single shot air rifle with scope

4. well aimed shots

The result was 217 rats and mice later over a period of 2 months I must have killed all the ones that had known my house to be home.  No rats or mice since 1999.  And yes I did count my kills and yes I am proud of them.  Rats turned out to be some of the toughest hunting I've done, they are smart and fast.  I never did mount one on my trophy wall though.

How can a big rat be offended by what his smaller european mouse cousin has to say?
