New critters

Hi all!

I haven't posted on here in awhile but I just HAD to tell you all that I have adopted two new 9 wk old baby gerbils! One is tan and creamy colored and her name is Perky and the other is pitch black and her name is Chloe. Just for all those animal lovers out there thought you might like to know! My kitty is having a slight problem with this as she feels they are for her to play with but I am training her by squirting her with water when she gets near the cage to leave them alone.

Hope you're all having a blessed day!

Jan

Critters
The difference is more between mice and men!

Get the mouse traps, get the D-Conn, or whatever floats your boat and start the war!

You will have to search the house for all the possible entries. If you have an attic, start with the traps/poison there. They can fit through a hole the size of a dime and they don't nest far from a food source. Look for droppings. Check out cupboards, cabinets, drawers, oven drawers, etc. If you search hard and long you will more than likely find evidence of their existance.

If you use poison, you risk the chance of a dead mouse in an inaccessible place resulting in a stench for about a week that you will never forget. Don't use the poison if you have pets, unless you can put it down where a pet absolutely cannot access. If you use traps, remember, where there's one mouse, there's 10 of his friends and relatives waiting in the wings. Forever and ever keep a few traps scattered about then check them periodically through the year to see if you have a problem.

You could always try rent-a-cat as an alternative!


my critters esp
my lovie dovie cat, the sweetest cat with the silliest behavior, like jumping in the bathtub every time i sit on the pot so she can play hide and seek behind the curtain... and josie-jo my aussie dog who plays with my cats, my new stray pumpkin, and my old cat traveler...my kids and grandkids, in no particular order :)
Invasion of critters
I know the feeling, during a drought about 15 years back, our little creek was a great water source for all kinds of critters...including swarms of rats and mice. One of the pesky critters (a rat) actually chewed up through my floor and went running through the kitchen under my new stove...with no place to go from there the rat was cornered. Well my DH can't stand a rat, so he gets out his 22 rifle and sits on the couch and waits on the rat to poke his head out..now mind you this is a BRAND NEW STOVE and back in those days $$$ were tight and I wasn't about to get another one.. I put the warning out.. you had better not hit my stove... After about 2 hours of intense waiting the rat finally appeared and boom... no more rat.. but my stove was still intact. That DH is a dead-eye... Anyway for the other 50 or so critters we got a poison called Blue Death from the local Farm Bureau Co-Op. Put it out in the barns and under the house and every day there would be 7 or so dead rats in the yard, etc. It killed them almost instantly. The guy said that it would make them have an insatiable thirst for water, thus leading them down towards the creek.. or we put out pans of water...when they drank the water they would bloat up, etc. Sort of like the COCA COLA theory, only much quicker. I guess rats can't burp. He was right too, we never did have one die in the house or in the walls, but it was a pretty nasty chore every morning to clean up the remains with the shovel... Uck!
Oh those poor little critters!!! LOL nm
