There are so many rats pestering in our house.I tried Racumin (ready to eat meal) to kill them and I succeed but there's an annoying odor that came from the dead rats and its hard to find their location.It's their other way to annihilate them and not to bother for their irritating odor?

Well, first, you have to do something about the food you leave behind or the food that falls from your kitchen. You should try cleaning up all possible sources of food these rats could be sustaining their lives on.
If you're living in a house which is very old. You should do some sort of general cleaning to move all your things and look for their nests.
Cover the holes or possible nesting grounds.
Throw all unused containers and junks.
Then apply the racumin for the consecutive days (like 5days). The stench would not be there if they no longer have 'nesting' places there. But if you don't do that, of course they'll stay and die in their little home inside your house.
Plus once a month, move all your things and furniture and clean your space well. They always go back to the place where there are food lying around and where they could smell their stench or markings.
Good luck!

That's the grossest thing I've ever heard. Where did you get that thought? Do you guys eat rats in your area? *LOL*
No, we don't eat rats in Asia. We barely eat raw foods (unless of course sashimi or sushi). But we don't like our beef rare, nor our meat rare. We love eating our food well-done. Never do we eat rodents.
*LOL* That's funny.
