[have the line-eater chase them ...]

yep, afraid they invaded my attic.  I am aware of 3 ways of attacking the
problem.  1) trap(s)   2) poison   3) cat(s)

RE: traps.  I understand that you need lots of them to get *ALL* rats fast
	otherwise they get wise to the traps and sneer at your efforts.
	peanut-butter was recommended as bait, as they can't remove it from
	the trap.

RE: poison.  I don't want them to die in the walls and smell up the house,
	so I don't think I'll try this.

RE: cat(s).  I understand I need a very *BIG* and *HUNGRY* cat. can I borrow
	someone's ??

Any thoughts and recommendations welcome.  Mail, I'll summarize.
