Dad's Cartoon Cat Rat Trap

for weeks my parents have been at war against a very resourceful rat and I've been begging them to call pest control but no my dad would rather balance a banana on a 2×4 over a garbage can full of water like a fucking cartoon cat

A makeshift rat trap is set up in a kitchen, with a banana balanced on a wooden plank over a garbage can filled with water. The joke is that the father chooses an absurd cartoon-style contraption instead of calling pest control, treating the rat problem like a slapstick Tom and Jerry scene. People send this as a reaction to ridiculous DIY solutions and stubborn refusal to take the sensible option.
