Anyone any tips for getting rid of actual rats in the garden (not Sarah) they are my worst nightmare.
 
Find exactly where they are, they dig holes a few inches in circumference. If you see fresh mounds of soil, that's where they'll be.
Make rubbish bins very secure, check for holes. Remove any bird food and if neighbours have any out maybe have a word. Tidy your garden so they've got nowhere to hide and no materials to take into their nest. Get your water hose and stick it into their nest and keep it running for 10 minutes.
Keep a presence, they don't like being disturbed and they move on.
