According to Lord Woolton, the 40,000,000 rats in the country are devouring food and property to the extent of £1 per head - £40,000,000 worth annually, He reminded all with rat-infested premises that if urgent action were not taken to exterminate the rats, the Government have the power to compel the work to be done.

Since you must clear your premises, you would do well to ensure that the job is done properlv. Quick-acting poisons and traps are insufficient. One untimely death among the horde. and the rest are immediately suspicious. They avoid the bait as you would the plague, and the filthy pest, carry on their work of savaging property and rendering unfit for consumption huge quantities of our food and they leave in their trail the germs of foul diseases.
