Its the things that do damage that are the pain.

I had some serious mice in the last house...a 3/4 full bag of dried dog
food vanished down to a few crumps *overnight*. I THOUHT it was rats,
but on setting traps, we caught half a dozen enormous sleek fat mice.

Ive seen then sherd square meters of carpet, destroy car woring looms
and underbonnet isnulation making nets in the air filters of laid up cars.

I like animals. I like the butterflies hat winter over. I like the bess
that come in. I kill the wasp, and teh mice, because one stings and teh
other is a dsease carrioer and dmagaes my stuff.

Rats are attacked on sight, I am afraid, as are pigeons and rabbits. And
Muntjac deer too.

They are all utterly destructive and/or carry serious dieases I don't want.
