if you got a rat problem, you need to find the cause, the source of that problem. Trash next door, vegetation overgrowth, garbage, etc. Are they after a food source or water source in your house? DO NOT fall for that closing up holes BS. As stated in previous post, that is an almost impossible task. Even if you do find (and you should look for them and close them up yourself) them, the rat will chew another opening to get to where and what it wants. Take away the cause first. Trapping is the way to go. Poisons is another alternative, but has its problems so use caution.
