#15: re rats in No. Va. I have 5 cats. My driveway was littered with dead mice today. A couple rats, last week.

The racoon has been around for over 10 years and his predecessors for the past 25 years, along with a nice possum. Chipmunks aren’t here due to the cats, but they do catch moles and voles, and ocassionally a neighborhood kid.

The snake is very happy.

The squirrels usually stay “high” in the trees and fences. The snake is not happy. There goes my neighbor’s white rat dog. Less noise pollution.

Now about that speeder the other day. Let’s see. My son’s K9 is hungry. Yes, we have a solution.

Bon appetit.

Re Cheh and her law. She’s the rat. Downtown DC from Pennsylvania Ave NW between 9th to 6th is loaded with them, in alleys, on the main and side streets, under trees and in gardens, etc. And those are just the DemoRats. The gray critters are also everywhere but at least they can’t vote.

My wife's falconry dog was a very nice Jack Russell terrier. Roof rats invaded my neighborhood. A neighbor put poison out for the rats. The Jack Russell got one of the poisoned rats and died. The dead rat responsible was found along the fence line a few feet away.

We don't use poison. Our Rat Terriers get the job done quickly and efficiently. We have a Jack Russell/Rat Terrier cross too. He is fast as lightning.
