I am an exterminator for a very large Pest Control company in Orlando, working the night route , servicing some really seedy accounts.
Some of these places are really bad with rats, Now granted Fla rats do not compare to 5lbs New York mega rats, our rats are rather small. A large Central Fla rat is about 1.5 lbs
One restaurant in particular has had an ongoing problem for about 6 months and he has refused to make any of the corrections that I have suggested. So one night I got bored and decided that I would do some creative rodent control.
Last week Friday I went to my favorite account armed with my newly aquired Crossman .22 CO2 pellet pistol, I walk into the kitchen and am immediately confronted by the 3 main rats that have been taunting me for weeks now, Herbert , Harry, and Beth. They have grown so used to me that they don't even attempt to hide.
Harry just waddles his fat ass back to his hole, Beth sits on top of the water heater looking at me and chittering, and I see harry the smallest and quickest of the bunch looking at me from behind the stoveline.
My first shot is perfectly tucked under Beth's chin straight up into her heart lung cavity at a slightly upward angle, she doesn't make a sound just drops down to the ground quiver-twitching.
My second round was aimed at Herbert's head but misses ever so slightly but is good enough to crease his skull and drop him instantly, dead as a doornail.
Now for the fast little Harry. The last 3 seconds of carnage has got him running for cover along some kind of pipe, my first shot is high and a little behind, next shot I lead too much and still too high, Third shot, just as he was ducking behind the refrigerator, was almost perfect just a little low.
It did however let me know exactly what kind of pipe Harry was running on, Suddenly the floor is quickly filling with hot water.
After 10 minutes of searching for the shut-off valve I stem the flow, search for the emergency repair supplies that I know he has, because most of these Mom and Pop types do, finally find it and effect repairs on the pipe. Spend an hour cleaning up and covering up. No evidence, no harm, no foul
Monday morning we have our weekly meeting This weeks topic, Restaurant security cameras, apparently some are located in kitchens, So anyway now I work for a rather small Pest Control company in Altamonte and I need to find a cheaper way to feed my gun collecting. Maybe I'll get into pellet guns
