I've had to deal with mice in the basement, raccoons in the attic & a dead possum in the garden, but I'm happy to keep all them & wouldn't trade the lot for a single rat. I've read your other critter posts too - I think you have even more wildlife happenings than I do. I love the trapped squirrel story.Mr. McGregor's Daughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05911409327006498766noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8257600656581656906.post-82185727477960402662008-07-31T08:15:00.000-04:002008-07-31T08:15:00.000-04:00Okay, bring them both over and maybe between them,...Okay, bring them both over and maybe between them, they can get the job done. We can use teeny tiny for bait and almost dead to fall on it and suffocate it.

Or lets hope he was looking for the lake, took a wrong turn but eventually found the right way, and is now swimming out to sea. Lets hope ANYTHING EXCEPT that he lives around here or was visiting a friend.

Especially since you shoo them away from your feeder. Make sure that the RAT doesn't come to the bird seed!!! Maybe he was only visiting a friend but I guess that wouldn't be too good either.
