DIY Rat Removal: Viral Video Sparks Debate Over Dangerous Technique

Pest control professionals often use various methods to remove rats from homes. Recently, a video surfaced showcasing an unconventional technique: using car exhaust fumes. In this video, a couch infested with rats was sealed in plastic and connected to a car's exhaust pipe. The car's engine was then run for three minutes. While the video shows a dead rat afterward, experts caution against this method due to potential safety hazards. 'Using carbon monoxide to kill rats is extremely dangerous and should never be attempted,' says a pest control expert. The video's popularity highlights the public's interest in creative pest control solutions, but it's crucial to prioritize safe and effective methods.
