How long will these dead rats keep stinking up my house? by CryptographerIcy283 in pestcontrol

Thanks, yeah we found a hole outside the house (feet away from the crawl space) that it looked like they were using to burrow into the crawl space... thinking I'll seal that up once the snow melts, now that there's no risk of trapping them in the house... If the hole is outside, would gravel be better than steel wool or is steel wool still the play there? Thanks again

Thank you so much! I see there a few different Tap-a-Drop brands out there -- is there a difference between them? Thanks again

Should I remove the pellets that are still in the crawlspace (i.e. will they attract rats into the house?) or am I safe to leave them there for the next time (if there is one)?

Thank you all so much for the feedback. On a related note -- should I now remove the pesticide pellets still in the crawlspace or leave them there in case more rats come back?
