Gordon R Posted October 4 Report Share Posted October 4 The daughter of a good friend has just been in touch. Moved into her new home and found this under her sink. The pipework is plumbed in for a dishwasher which she doesn't have. She had covered the open end of the pipe pipe with a bin liner - doubled up and secured. Something has chewed the actual pipe. Current suggestions are a rat or squirrel. Anyone seen anything like it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nublue 22 Posted October 4 Report Share Posted October 4 (edited) It's probably coming up the pipe. You can get a cap from BQ, your still going to have rat problems to sort out, if you were nearby I'd help, hope you sort it.

oldypigeonpopper Posted October 4 Report Share Posted October 4 Hello, Defo looks like a rat chewing the plastic pipe, Needs a rat trap, I used some called Crocodile Traps with Peanut butter bait fixed to a wood base, Rats will chew threw concrete so plastic is easy, As it happen I was at the farm today and checking the dryer barn , rats had chewed the broom handle i use for sweeping up, and timber slats on the side of the big fans to get in the dryer, 6 got in and 6 got some lead !!!!!!
