Farm Rats Threaten Yards and Crops Warned by Iowa Expert
Fifth columnists and rats are described as moving into farmyards sabotaging buildings and contaminating corn and small grains. Harold Gunderson of Iowa State College urges farmers to control rats now, noting they concentrate near barns and prefer baited poison. He recommends three ten day baitings using meat fish or peanut butter with squill or barium carbonate, wrapped and placed at dusk, plus careful use of gas in hog houses and granaries with livestock removed.
