My illiterate mom discovered a new method of killing rats.
She stumbled on indocid capsules actually killing rats.
Indocid is
Indometacin, or indomethacin, is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug commonly used as a prescription medication to reduce fever, pain, stiffness, and swelling from inflammation. Wikipedia
Yet mom found out that when she mixes the dust in the capsule with corn flour and feeding them on rats actually kills the rats.
Just do that and keep them at specific places where rats may pass and you will have them dead.
Vermin killed this way never stink immediately as with rat poison. Even if another pet feeds on them, it is harmless.
When mom discovered this new method, we rid our home of rats. They had become a menace.
