If you consider traps, remember that they can catch things besides your rat.
A LONG time ago, I spent some days in a PATC cabin. There was a message tied to the rat traps. It read:
"Do not set these traps. They are not rats. They are skunks!"
I'm glad they told me, because I otherwise would probaly have spent those several days outside in freezing rain without a tent.
When not molested, the skunks were actually pretty polite. You just had to be careful not to scare one if you got up in the dark.
