I have never seen a rat in the 36 years I have lived in FL but Bruto found one! A friend of ours got up in the middle of the night to use the bathroom and he sat down on the toilet and felt something bite his butt and he jumped up and turned around and there was a huge rat in the toilet. Turns out it had come in through a plumbing stack or vent in the roof so i had jim cover all our vents when we moved in here knowing this story. UGHHHHH
