Last night when I was turning over a little 9sqft triangular section for garlic planting in my backyard a rat slithered under the fence in front of me. And then it challenged me.
I shooed it away back under the fence, nudging it with my flat bladed shovel; it came back and starting biting at the blade of the shovel.
I nudged it back under the fence out of my garden, and it came back a third time hopping back and forth on its hind legs and zig zagging nips in on the shovel blade, so I jabbed it in half with a quick flick of the wrist and then pushed it's now dismembered body back under the fence.
