Nice video.  How far away are you?
What kind of light was used for that video?
When you going to be on the tv news?
Enquiring minds want to know.
What, Me Worry?

I've used 12 ga birdshot with good results in a similar situation.
Not in the city though.

Damn!  I hadn't check my facebook messenger in a while and missed this message from khon on august 30th!

Hi Robert, I'm a reporter with KHON. We contacted the city about the rat video you posted over on Kapiolani Blvd and good news! A violation notice was issued to the property this morning. We are running a story on this today for our 5 and 6:00 newscasts. Do we have your permission to use your video of the rats that you posted to YouTube? Feel free to contact me at 808-368-2958. Thank you!

While I am thrilled that action is being taken, I'm still sad that this thread may dry up. Maybe you could graduate to mongoose? Chickens?
The difference between theory and reality is that, in theory, there is no difference between theory and reality.

As long as the river is there it'll never be completely solved.  Also the reporter got back to me. They didn't run the story because they didn't have my permission to use the video.  She is going to interview me at work tomorrow and likely run the story tomorrow night if there are no terrorist attacks etc.

Of course I'll update this thread right after the interview.
(not sure I want to be on TV so the residents of the apartment know who narked on them)

Awesome.  Maybe more can be done to take care of the infestation.  :thumbsup:  Be careful what you divulge though....  You never know what the bleeding hearts will think about hunting of these poor creatures....   :crazy:

"We need someone to catch them all in humane live traps then release them in washington dc so they can live with the other rats."

Pellet guns will not be mentioned.  Nor will a link to this thread. Sorry! LoL

The reporter called me - her husband hurt his leg and she had to take him to the emergency room.
Tentatively rescheduled for tomorrow.

holy shit.. I watched that clip.. aww.. a boy and his pet rat.. I never saw it so I looked it up to see what it was about.
No wonder my parents didn't let me watch that as a kid ( I was 3 when it came out).
I doubt I'd want to watch it today.

Michael Jackson's song "Ben" was written for this movie.

Ben, the two of us need look no more
We both found what we were looking for
With a friend to call my own
I'll never be alone
And you my friend will see
You've got a friend in me
(You've got a friend in me)

Ben, you're always running here and there
(Here and there)
You feel you're not wanted anywhere
(Anywhere)
If you ever look behind
And don't like what you find
There's something you should know
You've got a place to go
(You've got a place to go)

I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"
I used to say "I" and "me"
Now it's "us", now it's "we"

Lyrics...

Ben, most people would turn you away
I don't listen to a word they say
They don't see you as I do
I wish they would try to
I'm sure they'd think again
If they had a friend like Ben
(A friend)
Like Ben
(Like Ben)
Like Ben
I hate Hillary.

Just had an interview with the khon reporter.  She said it'll air tonight at 5 and 6.

While I did mention I had killed hundreds of them using traps I didn't mention most of the kills were using "lead" traps.
