Yes, we have rats. And, the little critters were my last straw. After discovering them IN OUR HOUSE, I purchased some plane tickets to Utah. I left Glen here to take care of them--after his 30 hour shift, of course. Glen has done a marvelous job, I only spent one morning when we first came back, cleaning up their droppings in my home!. Here's how pest control Glen is taking care of the rat problem: He closed off their entrance to our house with wire and duct tape (FYI, rats chew through duct tape, so make sure to get wire as well). We have also set poison all over the place outside, and those rodents eat it up like candy. We did have pest control come out to deal with it, but all they did was set a few traps, and that wasn't going to do the job. They did take care of the ants though! We had four rodents in one trap this morning. I am not kidding that they must be here by the hundreds. They have eaten all of the apples off our tree (and there were a lot), and all of the grapes. That's fine, you little critters, just stay out of my house! I thought you might enjoy a picture. I took a picture of the four friends in their trap this morning, but haven't uploaded it yet. You can imagine...if you dare.

Gross, Krista! And I usually like little friends like rats but that is a big guy! Good luck with that problem!
AH HAHAHA. I totally did the same thing. When we moved into our house in Florida, we discovered the first night that we had mice in our house and attic. Two days later I was on a plane ride to Utah to let Ajay get rid of them. So so so gross. And yes, that rat is a big one.
