Rats

One of the weirdest places for rats to hide is in the Toilet. They do exactly that in my house. I am fed up. I am scared of shitting. It is really creepy. I am having restless nights because of this problem. I don't know what to do. I keep lots of Rat-Kill in there. But that doesn't help even a bit. Those rats seem to like it. They eat all the Rat-Kill pieces, shit all over the place and then hide inside the hole. They keep coming out whenever they want to party. I feel those rats have developed a resistance to whatever poison Rat-Kill contains. And probably, I am feeding those rats and allowing them to grow. Is it possible that they like me coz I give them all that 'food' everyday?

I keep the toilet-door closed all the time so that they don't move into the house. I even tried sprinkling acid inside and pouring a little inside the hole. Even that didn't help. Those rats had come through the hole from somewhere underground. It reminds me of a story in which some prisoners dig an underground passage to run out of the prison. They keep digging and moving underground. And after some distance, when they dig up and come out, they find themselves in a police-station.

There are lots of cats in my locality. Perhaps this way, the rats keep themselves safe from all those cats. So what if they have to endure human shit! And over the past few days, those rats seem to have figured out that it's safer to come out of the hole during late-night than during the day. But once in every few days, nature calls me at odd times. Like yesterday. And those rats scare me like hell. Imagine, you open the door and you find a huge black hairy dirty smelly creature moving on the white tiles. It's awful. Please tell me some good ways of getting rid of this problem. I'd be very very thankful. Rat-Kill and Hydrochloric Acid don't work. Those rats may actually be stuck there, but I'm too scared to let them out, run after them and kill the damn creatures.
