Watch out for mice.....OMG!!!

[Electronic M]

The family cabin has them on and off and I've never lived in a house where we didn't have mice or rats(for a few months) at some point. Current house has some that hang out in the walls near the kitchen and in the cabinets. Our cat never seems to catch them, but the traps are working. They are probably here because last year severe drought killed alot of the plants that squirrels, birds and mice survive winter on(big trees were dying too) and Mom was feeding the squirrels and birds on the back porch off the kitchen.

What drives me nuts are the wasps that decided they were going to claim the back porch last year. Those things are too damn teritorial. They made watering the yard(they liked the hose reel) and repainting the deck among other things a big pain.
