DIY RODENT PEST CONTROL. Why are there no products in US to stop rodents from enter from the fricking sewer? I am thinking of smoking my pipes to find if they chewed my cast iron.

lol imagine being invaded and bitten by shit rat
>smoking my pipes to find if they chewed my cast iron.
Explain

What didn't you understand?
First I smoke my pipe.
Then I check my cast iron to see if the rats chewed it.
Tobacco helps me focus on my cast iron and notice things like rat tooth marks.
You don't actually expect me to check my cast iron without first smoking a pipe, do you?
Of course not.
Smoking my pipe is a necessary first step.
I usually only hear about the sewer/water company doing it. Sometimes the flood water district because they want to make sure you didn't pipe your roof drains into the sewage system because the sewage system can't handle that flow if even a handful of people do that.
kek, either it's too much shit water or too little with them.
talked with a guy from the city's sewage company some time ago.
central Europe, so the sewage system is old but gold.
he was complaining how modern households don't release enough water into the pipes and they now have to regularly flood the system manually.
That's a big issue in california. We've had low flow toilets for 25 years and they're fricking ridiculous. Need to flush three times to get a decent load out of the toilet and down the pipes anyway.
All the plumbing is pitched for the old flow. The new flow just isn't enough. Ohwell .ore work and money but at least we're saving water.
I fricking hate my toilet so much goddammit. I need to diy a tank expansion
I have a septic tank, so if rats are coming up into the house via the sewer line, I've got bigger problems than rats in the house.
>Why are there no products in US to stop rodents from enter from the fricking sewer?
we have modern engineering which use sealed sewer mains. those cavernous sewers you see on tv? those are only in ancient-roman tier cities. we don't have rodents or anything in our sewers. at best maybe small spiders.
>those cavernous sewers you see on tv? those are only in ancient-roman tier cities.
TIL New York City is from the Roman era.
Correct.
America was once part of the Roman empire, but history was ~~*rewritten*~~.
See 1984 for a full explanation.
what do you mean? we've always been at war with Russia
Rats can dive up to 2 minutes
Ameritards seriously dont have picrel?
America does not have an aggressive city rat problem.
have you been to la and new york they got rat problems.
these fricking suck because hair and tp and really anything will wrap around the door and cause an inevitable clog
they're required in some states if your home is at flood risk
which if it's accessabile that's fine and I know they usually are but ew
who tf has rats come up their pipes
just teflon coat your pipes so the rats can't climb up them
explain how to do that as diy.
>melt teflon
>poor
although I can't vouch for the validity of this
>Melting point of teflon is over 300°C
>he doesn’t have a dedicated teflon crucible
never ever ever gmi
Just the other day I was taking a shit and a rat came up and Legolas jumped right off the airborne turd and into my butthole
>what is a drain cover
what are you on about homosexual. roddent enter via pipes to roof pipeline into your hose or find a moron fix open or just start attacking ur drainage.
They do it's called a backflow preventor.
better be a doo-doo check valve in there for the up coming ozembic fatbergs
Can anyone help me ID what the frick is in my ceiling (between first and second floor)?
- Mostly active during the day but just heard it scurrying again.
- Moves very fast and erratically
- Might stop moving for a sec if I bang the ceiling but that's it.
- Can hear it entering from outside and climbing up the walls
- Never hear it in the summer
I think it's a red squirrel but can't tell for sure.
probably a rat
