Then I got sticky traps - basically flypaper on a plywood backing. When I caught the first rat on one, I was now faced with the issue of what to do with it. I realized there was a reason they came two-to-a-pack --- I made a rat sandwich with them. It then got the bag treatment like the movie. I figured it was the most humane thing to do - nice & quick.
That is better than what I did to them; I used a hammer.
