The only real way to keep rats down is for your (or a neighbour) to have a cat that's a real hunter. We had that in a neighbour's cat but she's reached the age where she can't be bothered, and the young moggies are all too soft and pampered.

Cat like that may well hunt birds as well which can be a dilemma as many people who appreciate hedgehogs may be feeding them as well.

We got a Cat last year satisfying the missis long held desire for one, the rodent population has definitely reduced but they have to catch them young and small. A large rat may still have to be dealt with by the Air rifle. Do miss the variety of birds since we stopped feeding them but it isn’t fair to encourage them in to get attacked. Was worried about the cat s*it problem upsetting the neighbours but so far he has just used an allocated raised bed we maintain with frequently sifted ,raked and replenished fine soil which is more attractive than their gardens. He prefers to explore the adjoining 16 acre field and woodland anyway.
