Singapore's War On Rats: Can These Rat Busting Solutions Work? - Rats Part 2/2 | Talking Point

Rats are one of the toughest pests to eradicate because these critters are smart and cautious of new traps and baits. In this second part special of Talking Point, host Munah Bagharib and Steven Chia take matters into their own hands and seek novel solutions to outsmart these pesky rodents. From exploring alcohol-based rat traps to even rat contraceptives, Talking Point’s very own Rat Them Out task force is pulling all stops to win the war against rats.
