Room is roughly 2.5 x 5m

There is a rat in my house that hides in the darn oven!! How can I get rid of it? I tried the glue traps--but perhaps the one I got was cheap cause it was able to get off of the trap. Any suggestions on what to buy to kill it?

In gravel, I've been told a ton will go about 100 sq ft at about 2" thick. Is there a similar guideline for how far sand will go? I'm trying to estimate how much i'll need for the patio im building with brick.

I noticed that in our hallway and bathroom there are little bugs that attach to the wall. At first I thought it was a little piece of dust because it was a brown/gray color. It's is a marquis shape and is totally flat. I just recently saw how they move. I little "worm-like" head pops out of the top of the marquis and it creeps along. For the most part, they just hang out on the wall and don't move that often. They have no legs or wings (at least visible to the human eye). Are these things going to overtake our house? We are located in Southern California. I can send a digital picture if that will help.
Any information would be appreciated. Thanks!

I was cutting up my pumpkins yesterday, and I saw that one of the seeds had sprouted, and I never knew that that could happen. I guess what I'm asking is, is would it survive? In other words, could I stick it back in the ground and could it live?
