I have fished two dead rats out of my small pond. But they do not

Rats don't live in honeysuckle. There is nothing on honeysuckle they
eat. They may hide there from you, but they live where people leave
food outside for them like around garbage cans, picnic areas, ponds
where fish food is spilled on the ground, etc.
