None of us likes to think it will happen. And then, one day, you go into your chicken run and find the tell-tale signs.
You don't want to believe it - but for you and your family's sake, and for the sake of your chickens, you must take action.
It happens to the best of us. It certainly happened to me and I want to share what I learned with you, so you don't make the same mistakes I did.
Let me hasten to add here, this was not the fault of my chickens at all.
It was not my chickens who attracted rats and other pests into the coop. It was the fact that I didn't know how to keep them away and made some very basic mistakes.
Once I stopped making those mistakes - basically by good husbandry and using an automatic feeder to keep rodents away from the grain - I stopped getting rats.
My free checklist is designed to make sure you undertake some basic pest control as soon as you see the first signs.
