Hundreds of rats -- some weighing up to 3 pounds -- have invaded a southern Kentucky town.

The giant rats were reportedly first spotted around the Robinson Milling Company in Somerset, Kentucky before moving into the surrounding neighborhoods.

Residents concerned about the health risks posed by the large rats have taken their concerns to the city council of Somerset, Local 6 News reported.

A new supply of rat poison will arrive in the next few days and offered free to all residents.

They look like the "rats" that Dave Attell shot with a pellet gun on one of his Insomniac episodes. It was in louisiana I believe.

Just do what they did in Philadelphia... open up a bunch of "Cheesesteak" places and use them as fronts for pest control.
