Hi I'm new to Grapevine and very impressed how friendly everyone is.Just got back from lottie and I've got a new friend Mr. RAT! do I ignore, poision,trap or start a new compost bin all together. HELP ME PLEASE

Is it in your compost bin? If so, water it throughly, and repeat as necessary. Get anything edible (bird food etc) out of your shed and don't leave any untidy areas that would make a nice nest.

thanks for all your help, im sure i'll be asking lots more question in the future
