The S510 had been bought as we had rats living under our decking in 2015 however it was all new to me, so practice was needed and we managed that set of lodgers with carefully placed poisoning under the decking, as we have lots of other wildlife visitors living on the edge of 200 acres of Hampshire woodland and farming. This spring we again got rats back again living under the same decking with them rushing our to grab the bird food put out for all the song birds we get daily, even squabbling over the feed with the half dozen pheasants we get (escapees from a local breeding farm). Strangely poison was ignored this time, so all those paper practice targets and those hundreds of Schweppes Tonic Bottle tops (Imagine all those G&T's I HAD to drink just to collect the tops) who had been "victim" to months of practice where now to be joined. Unlike yourselves who possibly have done this for years it was a new thing for me, Wednesday morning resulted in 2 rats in the dustbin and followed by a very nervous one on Thursday morning. This morning the song birds and pheasants had a quite breakfast without having to dodge rats.
Thanks to all the info picked up from you all wrt practice practice and yet more practice resulting in 3 very clean kills which all those Schweppes Tonic tops would be proud of
Now looking to get a S510 SL as that Anniversary is just too good looking
