Hmmm...this is making me suspicious.
Last week there was a hole here in the flowerbed. I gave our dog trouble for digging in the flowerbed again. She slinked away with her tail between her legs. Same thing happened on Sunday, but this time Rich took a closer look and decided that the dog could not have dug that hole. Yesterday I happened to walk past here to see a pile of gravel stashed under the plants. This gravel must have been removed from under the pavement. This is starting to get really suspicious.
Did I tell you that this is all happening right under the bird feeders where the excess seed lands?
So anyways, Rich started stepping in the garden along the curb and his foot sunk down 6 inches all the way along...when all of a sudden...there went Templeton (the rat) scurrying to get away!!!
SO SO YUCKY!!!
So the bird feeders are going...and I'm off to buy some rat poison...or a trap...or something.
I'll keep you posted!
Don't get rid of the bird feeders! Stick some rat poison down the hole and the problem will be taken care of, hopefully. Or have Rich sit on watch for awhile with a gun and shoot the thing :)
ReplyDeleteI would never give up the joy of bird feeders for some silly rat. We have had them here, in town too :(

Careful with that rat poison! The dog might get it! A trap is safer and we have one you can borrow for a few days.
ReplyDeleteEEEkk good luck!!
ReplyDeleteGlad you found the intruder.. Keep us posted on the rat catching :)
Oh, gross! Rats are no good. :) Nice to meet you! I love all the pictures. :)
