This is the time of the year rats
and mice take the opportunity to get
into the basement and destroy pota-

and kill them off. This can be ac-
complished by mixing any kind of

even spreading it on bread and plac-
ing it in their runway. Care should
be taken so that household pets do
not eat the poisoned bait.
