Welcome to the forum fella

Best way to lure rats out is bait them regularly at a safe spot and then after a few nights sit out from a comfortable ambush point and pick em off with a low light lamp

Cat food or Chocolate or a combination of both is good rat bait any very smelly food also works

welcome to the forum.... i found when i shoot rats i had to use rws super hollow point when using my .177 stoped them in their tracks. Used to get alot of runners until i started using them. To get them out cat meat i found worked best mixed with a bit of water make it mushy so they have to stop to get it . but i only tried this out once ihave some many where i shoot they are always around

best rat bait is bologna fry or nuck it to bring out favor (do it and they will come) best in evening hide and let them have it . let me know if it wroks

For crows and magpies I leave a gutted rabbit out in the field,they dont take long to find it.
