    We moved into our newly built house in December. One of the toilets became blocked after only a couple of months and I have just plunged it back to working order.

    I'm now having a crap afternoon. I also expect people to take the piss out of this post!

    Something is in my roof and it's woken me up every morning this week at 3am by scratching or whatever it's doing right above my bed!

    Probably not a possum (not loud enough?) so it's possibly a rat? Posion went up into the roofspace last night so hopefully that will take care of it.

    I just want an uninterrupted sleep! Not to be outside at 3am shining a torch at the roof like I was today.

    Could be a rat or mouse. If there's one there's bound to be many more. I had a bird's nest in my previous house. Chicks chirp a fair bit so it was easy to identify.

    With the poison bait you will need to check the roof cavity and remove any dead rodents otherwise you'll have the smell of death permeating through your house.

    I had rodents at our place. I bought some cheap mousetraps. Tried some cheese and tried some peanut butter, both things the bastards stole without getting caught. In the end I sticky taped the bait onto it, and that worked in crushing their skulls instead of snapping their necks.

    Best sound is when you hear scratching around, lay a trap, and in the middle of the night hearing a snap. And then silence lol

    No, I was using the box as a table as I was photographing things on it.
