(available at Feed & Seed stores, hunting supplies, online stores, etc) and throw them around your yard. We used some to get rid of "roof" rats when we lived in DFW - not only got rid of the rats but not a squirrel in sight after two years.

Never heard of roof rats until we moved to DFW. Exterminator warned us if we used bait, they may die in the walls, so we asked around and someone told us of Fox Urine. If you've got really rugged rats/varmits, use Coyote Urine.

Cheap, easy, no-kill...it really does work
