You could do them like the old maid lady I rented an upstairs apartment from when I first married many years ago and didn't know to check to see how nutty the land lord was. We had a 1 upstairs bed room apartment that was one room away from over her downstairs bedroom, We heard rats and mentioned it to her after a week of the rat noises in the fall. She said she would take care of it. So I thought that would be the start of something better. NOT SO!! At about 10:30 the next night as I lay still trying to determine where the varmits were so I could tell her of their whereabouts I heard a shot. Went down to see what was the matter and the old bat was lying in the bed shooting through the ceiling with a .22 caliber rifle at the sounds! Luckily it was the ceiling that was under the floor of her reserved upstairs storage room. I told her that somebody could get killed that way! She answered that the rats were there first and that was how she had always handled it! Needless I got moved the heck away from that house in the next day or two and stayed away! This really is a true story!! The woman died about 30 years ago and the family has let the house rot down, but maybe the rats are happy, Kinda funny many years later, but was scary at the time.
