Tony, an old bushy's trick is to grease a tub or bucket (plastic works well) to about 3 to 4 inches from the top, fill to just below the grease line with water and put grain or food that floats onto the water. Check daily.

You have left it very late to plant. You may or may not grow a crop - you can try. No idea on the rat problem. Look on the internet - but gee Ratsack works - you are going to kill them anyhow, does it really matter how.

Yeah, ratsak kills the rats! and the owls that eat them :(
