Gud day guys. I have been trying to handle this all by myself but its not been working. Its time i swallow the shame and request help from nairalanders. I have been having a running battle with rats in my ceiling for months. They're not in my store, rooms or kitchen, infact av neva set my eyes on any. But it appears they're playing an endless football match inside my ceiling. The thing is causing me and my family sleepless nights. I tried a few solutions that my friends suggested, but to no avail...The last being some very smelly and toxic tablets which i just threw into the ceiling, yet no solution.
Can someone please help me out?

If you have no problem with a cat, get one and let it join the match in the ceiling. After like 10 matches, the winner will be obvious

Lol. OP also wants to injure me with 'endless football match'. Rats are wicked animals that can frustrate someone's existence. When they reach a certain number they'll come down gradually to feast on sleeping people's toenails.

OP, I advice you mix flour and cement. Put the mixture in a small container no different from the size of a short cup. Put it in their location with another container holding water. Once the little bastards are drawn to the smell of flour they'll consume the cement. The cement will make them thirsty and they'll quickly drink the water. Give them three days at most and the smell of decaying rats will nearly chase you out of the location.

Edit: Rats are survivors so I doubt this method will eliminate all of them. When the majority are killed off someone can volunteer to climb the ceiling and wipe the rest out. If two survive the cement-flour ordeal just know they’ll multiply very fast.

No

It's more like burning drying pepper

However you decide to deal with this I will suggest you not kill them without being sure of a way to collect their carcass. Am sure the last thing you want is to rig open your ceiling when they start decomposing.

Probably look into 'borrowing' a cat with a track record of hunting mice, in case you don't like cats in your home and in order to ensure the mice are consumed or chased out.
