That’s the question I’m trying to find the answer to. Right before last summer 4 houses got torn down across the street and everybody living next to them had a rat infestation. Well needless to say I had one rat which culminated into at least 3-4 because that one had babies and we had poison set out and the mother died. Then the babies were crawling around and my cat was a good mouser but she didn’t kill them, only wanted to play with them so I managed to nab one and chuck it outside. One got himself caught underneath my upstairs bathroom cabinet and died there so I had to rip out the bottom paneling to get it out but another one/two? who knows died in between the first and second floor somewhere near the kitchen and I couldn’t figure out where, boy did that stink for about a month but it was spring so I left the windows open. So anyway, I had a few holes in the exterior due to the house settling and the owner got all those fixed and put siding up so no more holes but now I hear and the dogs hear scurring in between those floors again. Haven’t a clue what it is nor where they’re getting in either.

Where’s the Summer?

1. That’s gross –how did you live with the smell? Aren’t you afraid they’re going to bite you? I had a field mouse get into the house once (he slipped in from the garage) and it took us days to catch it. Finally my dog smashed it with his paw after I had it trapped in a room and it scurried out under the door and that was that.
