Back a rat into a corner
And you will find without a doubt
That it becomes surprisingly vicious
As it angrily lashes out.
So if that is your plan of attack,
Heed the warning: be prepared!
Be sure you have the tools you need;
And, above all, don’t be scared.
The best thing to do would be
To stop the problems before they begin.
Be certain that your house is secure
So that no rats can find their way in.
Check the foundation; walk around
And fix whatever the structure lacks.
Don't let the vermin sneak inside
By making darn sure there aren't any cracks.
You can put your house in order.
Consider how much you will have gained.
But don't forget to be vigilant:
A dwelling has to be maintained.
A strong, secure house is the best
Protection against dangerous pests.
Then you can live in relative peace.
At least that is what wisdom suggests.
