I haven't seen the rat trap the OP referred to sold in Thailand. Must be a Buddhist thing. However, when I had a rat problem in the US they worked very well.

I have a friend in the US who swears by the electric/electronic rat zappers.

Here in Thailand, I use the rat cages which work well. However, you have a live rat that you have to dispose of. I usually open the cage in front of the dogs in an open field and let them chase and kill the rat.

Because I have dogs, the rat glue is a problem. The dogs end up having the tray stuck to them.

I haven't heard of anyone having success with the electronic sonic devices.

I think the glue traps might be the way forward. Thanks!

We have a house upcountry which has been infested with rats. They live in the roof space above the suspended ceiling and, by all accounts, are wise to the traps/bait/poison that have so far been tried. The rats are chewing cables and have also chewed the flexi-type pipes that feed the water to the washing machine. Has anyone had any luck with sonic repellent devices, or are they a waste of money? A Thai friend who lives in the UK bought 2 of these gizmos via a TV shopping channel and brought them to Thailand, she reckons they work, I am not so sure. What can get rid of them? I thought the local Thais would have this boxed off, send in a couple of trained and highly vicious mongoose/ferret types? Thinking on, the rats are probably big enough to hold their own. Any ideas?
