Please don't say any deeper than that because I don't think I have the energy to dig that deep! Interested to see input here. I've got a wood rat that is coming around looking for free handouts. I have wire 2 feet out from the coop, but this guy is hanging around in broad daylight and runs away as soon as I come out. I'm planning on getting a Rat Zapper from Amazon. Someone else I know here on BYC has used hers with good results. Good luck-hope you get some helpful answers.

For most offences, the Police have 6 months from the date of the incident to start the Court process. Some Police forces will serve papers within weeks of the offence, whereas others will not actually get a file to Court until the 6 months is almost up.or most offences, the Police have 6 months from the date of the incident to start the Court process.
