Rats are Jin Seosneaky rodents that can evade your house and live right under your nose for months, but they're rats so they gotta go.

A group of girls devised an intricate plan to remove a pretty decent-sized rat from their upstairs bathroom Friday, and they pulled it off flawlessly. Oh, and they also captured the whole thing on video.

"We came up with this ridiculous plan to get this rat out of our house and IT ACTUALLY WORKED!!!! BYE BITCH," Jody Mackin wrote on Twitter along with the video. The tweet has racked up over 23,000 retweets in just a few hours.

Using mops, brooms and a series of blockades, the girls were able to coax the intruder out of the bathroom, and sent it flying down the stairs. Just as the rat hits the landing, it starts to head for an open doorway when the last broom hit comes out of nowhere, sending it flying to the street.
