sometimes the rats are so bad that you just give up. This happened in my first area. When we would turn the light out in our shack, the rats would scale the plywood walls and come in. We killed them for a while, but it was quite nasty disposing of them and resetting the traps, esp. after you have already gone to bed.
Well the guy who replaced me was very dilligent, and ended up killing over 50 rats with the rat trap.
I can't imagine how happy the Kombai tribe would have been to catch 50 rats (for those of you that watch the Discovery channel).
