The chances are, if you’re as proud of your garden as you are your house itself, you’ll have put time, dedication and money into ensuring it looks perfect. With that in mind, the last thing you’re likely to want is an infestation of rats, each of them hungrily threatening to trash – and quite literally, too – your hard work.
