Rats in the House

Hi there!
Does any of you have any experience with having a rat infestation at home? My best friend has a young child and had to move to stay with family last week after calling pest control out to deal with a rat problem. They put lots of trays of rat poison in the affected rooms and one of the trays was emptied (eaten) a couple of days later. None of the others have been touched. But the pest controller put some poison down a hole in the floorboards too. All has been quiet since then. Does it seem they might have died/disappeared? How long does it take to get rid of rats? The pest control will come back next week to check. Of course he knows all about keeping the trays away from the child, we are just curious why only 1 of about 12 or 13 have been eaten!

Um... don't remember exactly what happened, but I remember one of my buddy had that problem 4~5yrs ago. These poison stuff do kill &/or make rats sick enough to make them avoid it. But later down, new one comes back. Worse part is AFTER part. All the dead rats plus their shit in the nest bring bugs and smell to it.

One thing to another thing got my buddy & fam go crazy. In the end, he pretty much bust every wall and floors. cleaned up the mess. It was a pretty disgusting scene (so he claims). He wanted to remodel the house, wife didn't let him... but he had excuse. So it kinda worked out in his favor. lol but in the future he said he will use repellers by Everpest. Here is an interesting blog about their features https://everpest.com/blogs/blog.

Sorry I do not much experience in handling rats at home and maybe you could search online for more relevant information.
