They are attracted by the food they smell when Derek feeds the birds. He said: <em>\u201cI feed the birds, you see, and if you feed the birds, it\u2019s obvious rats are going to turn up. There\u2019s probably more rats than people.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cI put seed and fat balls out for the birds,\u201d<\/em> Derek added. <em>\u201cIt attracts all sorts of birds &#8211; jackdaws, starlings, magpies, sparrows, robins and wrens. Rats breed pretty quickly. There are small ones, which are young ones, and the older ones. The young ones are pretty easy to catch, but the older ones are really crafty. They won\u2019t go into the trap, and they won\u2019t eat the poison. So you\u2019re lucky to catch one. The rats don\u2019t bother me because I\u2019m used to it. My wife, Sylvia, doesn\u2019t like them.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>One day, he finally caught an 18-inch rat, which was almost as big as a small terrier dog. Derek is about 6\u20191\u201d.

She said: <em>\u201cI was in the bungalow, and Derek was outside. I thought he must have been in the garden. He said, \u2018Come out with your phone!

I hadn\u2019t put food out for the birds for a week. It was hungry, so it went into the trap after I put a bit of cooked chicken in it. I had a pellet gun, and I did one shot to it, and that was it. I\u2019ve not seen any for a few days, but they\u2019ll be back.
