Paul and I are working on the Animal Care badge for the
PEP system. We're detailing out some options for people to use when attempting to mitigate/eliminate small outdoor rodents. Here's our list, can you add some more ideas???
Create snake habitat
Plants that encourage cats
Get a cat
Get a rat terrier
Attract two different birds that eat rodents
- Describe the species and how you’re attracting them
- Probably building housing
- Perches for raptors
Plants that discourage rodents
Pulse hogs/chickens/turkeys/etc. through an area with too many rodents
Put out more food for rodents (thus attracting predators)
Reduce food for rodents
