We don't own any cats. We have several 'wild' cats that move in and out

Every now and then we know when one ventured to close to a big snake and
they are found dead. Cats kill small snakes. I have King snakes that
eat rattle snakes. They love
to move through a nesting area and have an early lunch. Kings don't
bother people or anything but snakes. Coral snakes look like them but
are eaten by Kings.

East Texas is home to some large and deadly snakes. The big nasty one
attacks for fun.
It can 'leap' 6-8 feet from where it is lying. Can kill a grown person
within steps from attack.

Bullshit, feral cats very rarely bother birds... why waste energy
hunting critters that can fly off when rodents are far easier prey.
It's house cats that people let out that go after birds... house cats
are well fed so they hunt birds for entertinment.
Barn cats don't hunt birds, barn cats hunt the rodents that are eating
the livestock feed


Popeye, pull up yoose pants, and put yoose tallywhacker back in, and zip up!

And quit humping those damn stray cats ... yoose gonna get yoose little

Do they allow cats in your HUD apartment, Sheldon?

I've recently come across some articles that mention you can make your
own "non-toxic" rat/mouse posion by making a 50:50 mixture of regular/
corn flour and cement powder. They eat the mixture, then go in search
of water. Once they drink some water....game over. I have a few
specific questions, in relation to this D.I.Y. rat poison.
- How effective is this mixture at killing rats and/or mice?
- Assuming you place this mixture indoors (e.g. in the roof space),
will this poison ONLY take effect once the rodent goes outside for a
drink of water? The reason being, I'd want to avoid at-all-costs
having Ratty "snuff it" in my roof space, then having the most God-
awful smell to contend with a few days later.
- Is there anything that can be added to this mixture that would make
it extremely enticing to rats and/or mice? e.g. Powdered parmesan
cheese, sugar, salt, a little soy/fish sauce, some type of finely
chopped meat (raw or cooked)? I am just taking a wild guess here, as
I don't know what would attract them.
- Most of all, would tile grouting powder, used for bathroom tiling,
work just as well as cement powder in this D.I.Y. mixture?
I really would appreciate some advice. Thanks.


They do eat the mixture especially if you cook the flour in a frying pan until it turns slightly brown, then mix in the concrete. I don't know what happens to the rats because mine are outdoors underground.

I use this and it works great- I use a yogurt container to keep it contained and dry by the chickens.I use chick starter feed and cement

Sometimes you have to start with higher percentage of flour. They will die where they die. No guarantees. As they learn to eat it increase dry cement. At least my dogs and cats didn't eat it. Kills all rodents.

Ah u must be American. most of yr urban wildlife- aka birds, small mammals, lizards etc already dead due to pussycats.
Here in Australia, cats are considered feral animals altho they are still widespread as pets. They kill native birds, small possums, etc at a rate of about 100/year. Most rodent poisons have a secondary kill in them which takes out owls and other predators who eat the poisoned rodent.
Try the cement flour method and leave access to water right outside the building w the infestation. Might just do the trick without harm to native wildlife.

Might be of interest to note that rodents cannot throw up. Once they
swallow a poison they can only excrete it. That is one reason why they
are used to test toxicity of substances.
