For the bucket idea, fill a 5 gal. bucket up with grain to maybe 4 or 5 inches down from top. Just let them have a feast and a ball for a few days. Keep bucket filled to that level. Then take bucket away, empty, and fill up with water, with maybe an inch or two of grain floating on top of water. Do this so its at the same level in bucket as before (4 or 5 inches down from top). Then the rats will sink through the floating grain and drowned. Pick out the dead ones everyday untill you don't catch any more. You might have to repeat the entire process and start over with a full bucket of grain again, depending on how many there is, and how clever some of them are. Note, you'll have to use grain that will float. If whats in the bin won't float then use another kind that will. Use the same kind through entire process. The oil thing, there is nothing to bait them to the bucket. It would just be an accident for them to take an oil bath. The poison thing. Use the nail down. If they can move it, they will. They'll move it back to thier nest, and use it for nest building material and won't eat it. Not enough to kill them. If its nailed down, they'll eat more of it because they can't move it. Then they'll usually eat enough to kill them. With the nail down bait, buy small supplies of it, and change kinds everytime you run out. Don't know how, but using the same kind all the time seems to loose its effectiveness. Perhaps they'll just eat more of something thats new to them.
