Victoria ranked 5th rattiest city in Canada, 4th in B.C.

Where I live, this comes as no surprise. I've found rats crawling inside the engine bays of mine and my partner's vehicles the last couple weeks.

Apparently putting a few bounce sheets in the engine bay can deter them. Just remember to keep the sheets away from heat, and don't leave them in there if you go for a drive.

My girlfriend rubbed some cat toys on our cats and put it under her hood for a couple nights. No sign of rats going back in since!

If anyone has any other tips for fending them off, drop it below.
