rats in my attic, and racoons in my garbage, but what kind of people have live escargots in their icebox?!!! It was happy as can be, nestled up behind the water filter.

(Sometimes I bring veggies home from the garden and don't have time to wash them, so I just put them dirt and all in the fridge for later. Bad idea, I guess.)

Somebody help me, before I become one of those senile people you see on the news found living in squalor with a hundred feral cats and no plumbing!

 
Only a pint? I don't think you understand the gravity of the situation, Nan!

 
HAHAHAHA You're sick sick sick. hahahahha too funny, Sorry Joe smileys/frown.gif

 
Maybe you can bread him and deep fry? What is the recipe for mice these days? LOL

 
awwww, poor wittle thing, after everything he survived.... pass me the gin!

I've taken to washing my farmer's market greens outside cause of bugs and snails and whatever else is hidden in the center of things.

can't wait for the late spring crops. I'm sooo tired of supermarket produce.

 
I had a momma possum and her babies behind my washer in my indoor laundry room. How they got there>

only God knows. We gathered the mommy and babies up into a box and took them out to a field nearby next to a preserved area with creek, grasses and trees. Yesterday we had a wild turkey in our yard and on our roof. Sometimes we have migrating ducks in our pool. Love living with the critters as long as they are polite!

 
Reading a 60's vintage John D.McDonald novel today,guy with possible "small problem" sez----

"I always buy pints, four at a time, that way you cut your losses if you drop one!"

I cannot stand to live with critters inside, always fought mice in logging camps. Ships are pretty secure, Coast Guard also watches out for our health.

Thank goodness my neighbors have cats. They occasionally leave me a present in front of door so I know they are doing their job.

Happy Hunting,
Nan

 
They do? Unfortunately my dog eats possums. Or rather she just murders them...

I wish she'd eat them but instead she leaves the bodies around to scare us to death.

 
And I am sure you were a polite hostess just as long as it kept it's tail down

 
We have rabbits everywhere and they seem to like to fling themselves

down the window wells. So everyday my kids do a bunny check and rescue them. Then they run up the stairs, with a handful of rabbit, yelling BUNNIES!! so someone will open the door.
This scares the hell out of me every time they do it. The record is 6 bunnies in one window well.

 
Yikes, and here I was complaining about a single, dormant (albeit slimy, not furry) mollusk?

Daily rabbit raids! Sheesh.
