I thought these big rat stories were just urban legends to scare the tourists. not so I see.

 
OMG, That happed to me in Providence, R.I. when my son was in college. I was waiting for him...

downstairs and minding my own business when this Giant Rat Ran over my foot and to this day I can't stand to see a mouse let alone a Rat. He would tell me at night they would be all over. I don't know how it is now, but that was a most terrifying experience!

 
I'll have to try this near the door to the kitchen, from the garage. . .

Don't want any more stupid rats in the house!

 
Hey! Geckos is good-os! They are eating all those cockroaches that you have around and. . .

would like to get rid of!

My dang cats usually catch lizards that run under the garage door. . . I hate when they do that! Mousies and ratses, yes, lizardeses NO!

 
Awww, they're just cute, innocent lizards and they kill bugs. But I know what you mean, they always

came into the house when I lived in FL. I used to catch them (took some maneuvering), and then let them go outside. But, once I killed one of them and I felt terrible. I actually heard it shriek. I've felt guilty about it ever since. They're really innocent creatures. Not like dirty, disgusting, disease-carrying vermin. Shudder.

 
Ha! One night my daughter went up to shut the door on the chicken coop. . .

and un-hooked the hanging chicken feeder to put it in the chicken coop and a rat dropped on her shoulder. This is in full dark and the area is unlit. Boy, she said she was scared, but she got really ticked when I started laughing at her expression; it was funny!

 
"Our" rats usually succumb to traditional rat traps baited with bananas. . .

Rats 'round here seem to love bananas.

 
I'll have you know that we are very respectable creatures smileys/smile.gifsmileys/smile.gif
