Finally made it down the coast. Bus replacement from wyndham vale to geelong made it a lengthy trip. Bit chaotic, no one seemed to know which bus was going where (including the drivers lol).
But it's always interesting taking that bus through those newish estates out west to see how they're going. People have planted things, but not things that provide any shade. The amount of synthetic lawn is pretty crazy. Just a massive heatsink. Also the walking tracks are always empty which is a shame as they look quite nice.
Before leaving decided to borrow both Situationcake's and Dumblederps ideas. Hoping the steel wool works, but if it gets through...
Behold, the ROTATING BOTTLE ON A STICK OVER A BUCKET 2000โข (that is pb not poo).
Let's see how we go.
That is ACME fantastic! We had a rattus suicide itself by leaving the lid of the big green bin open.
Did you oil the insides of the bucket?
Shit.. didn't think of doing that.

You may come home to peanut butter smeared on the floor and the bucket tipped over because it body slammed itself up against the side.
No water in bucket ?
Yea about 7cm high. Feel bad about that part if it works.
Don't worry rats can swim.
