Mollina - you need to find out how they are getting it. A friend has them coming in from her neighbours attached house under her kitchen cupboards - they only need a small gap. You might be best getting the pest man in if you can't deal with it. What pellets are you putting down. Be careful not to just poision them as if they die in your house you'll end up with a dreadful stench, it is a hideous gas like smell.QUOTE]

Thanks Dusty, I've been using B%Q Mouse & Rat killer pellets.

I hope to get rid of them soon as my dining table - which I had just cleared! - is now covered with pans etc!

Hi Sammiell - I have an Aga oven (lovely in Winter, but :eek: the bills!) so I put the puddings (1 large, 1 medium and 1 small, stacked in two layers) in my deepest stock pot with 2-3" of water in the bottom. Then I bring it to the boil with the lid on, make sure it gets really hot (about 10 mins bubbling) and transfer overnight into the low oven: it cooks for about 10-12 hours and goes really dark.:) Low oven is very cool: around 300F max.

But I used to use a slow cooker before I moved to this house, and cooked the pudding for 10-12 hours in that, so it's possibly a cheaper option than heating the oven specially. It was brilliant. I think you need to keep it on the high setting, though, or it isn't hot enough.

HTH?
