Default Rats

Hello everyone,

As some of you may know, I am heavily involved in getting my children's school garden up and running.
We have been using the compost 'bin' for about 6 weeks now but we seem to have a rat infestation. I didn't think that it was rats as they have burrowed under our raised beds and displaced lots of soil. I didn't think that rats did that but a few people today have told me that they do.

does anyone have any advice on what we can do to stop them from ruining our garden? the garden is on a large wildlife site and I am happy for them to be anywhere but under our raised beds!!!! How can I attract them away?


P.S. I have recently started a blog about the garden / wildlife area if anyone would like to view it. I'm playing catch-up at the moment though so am writing about the past. Hopefully it wont take me too long to get up to speed.
