    UNDEROOS - Support Movember

    Rags;1405313 wrote: Mr Rags has just this minute finished boarding up the air return for the gas heating and vacuumed shitloads of rat shit from the ducting. He's disconnected the leccy to it and turned the gas off. He now has to figure how to block the outlets in the rooms. We're going to set traps to try to clear the rats out.
    I wonder if we could entice the diamond python to take up full time residency in the ducting... we could keep it warm by turning on the heating...
    We're also trying to work out how to clean the ducting as it absolutely stinks of ratshit and urine ... which is why we've blocked it off. . If we can't fix it we'll dismantle the ducting and take it to the tip. Such a bloody waste. But we've never used it as every time we've turned it on the house filled with the most awful smell and we've had to open all the doors and windows to get fresh cold air in... rather self defeating......

    It is time I gave the house a good clean and got mr Electro dry in again. Maybe I should get the carpet dyed. Perhaps a nice foodstain pattern.

    3 little fox terrier ratters.
    The last lot of rat poisoning I did was horrendous. It's a slow aweful death for the rats, and now we've got dead lizzards all over the place. God knows how far into the food chain it got.
    These 3 little dogs turned up and dispatched 20+ rats quickly and ethically. No pain, no poison, no blood, no keeping the dog in for two and a half weeks in terror.
    I'm seriously considering phoning around for some ratters next time.

      I believe you can rent rat terriers. You can in the states. Farmers rent them to rid their barns of vermin. You would not believe how fast the little flamers can go too.
      I used to have one, and she could dispatch a squirrel in seconds. They just grab them, shake their heads, vermin gone, and on to the next one.
      Marvelous little animals.

        Hiya Walli ... I throb it when you pop into the drawer. Would you consider contributing to our 'magazine' by posting some pics of your floral art?

        Rags & Bridge - I don't have rats in problematic proportions but I do have possums. In the last 2 weeks I've trapped seven of the cute little buggers. Yeh, yeah ... they're protected so legally I can only move them 50' from where I caught them. How the fusk does that work? Melbourne has a HUGE possum problem but they want to spend squillions on some stupid bloody birth-control programme.

        My sister brought me back some beautiful possum fur gloves from NZ ... just sayin' ...

                        Hi Bridge.

                        I missed Martin last week.


                        Wonder if there's anyone does that in my area? I shall make enquiries.

                        I last used rat poison about 25 years ago when I managed to poison one of my cats... he had caught a slow moving rat. He lived but gee it was awful to watch.
                        It carries a fair way into food chains... owls after a slow mouse, or kookas , magpies etc.

                        Same with slug and snail bait. I just never ever use it.

                              Techie, it is sad that your mum has lost those letters, the house, her cats. People can usually cope with one or two things, but losing everything would be such a shock and create so much anguish. Your mum is a lucky lady to have a family to look after her.


                              Missy, why not get Mr Missy to scan the letters? A great way to spend his evenings while you are in Kiribati or Sydney….
                              Kiribati…. Do I want to go there… sort of do a Raggsy? Whats there?
                              I wanted to go to Western Samoa in the late 60’s but never had the money. Now of course it has completely changed.


                              Tawny, lovely story about the mens shed. We don’t have one where we are. Besides, Mr Rags is still working. I have a mate at Cooma who started up a mens shed a long time ago… brought a lot of people together, when at the time there was a bit of suicide and families breaking up when a number of farmers went broke.

                              Bridgey, look after that knee of yours.
                              Missy, lovely piccies. I’ve been on and off ther computer so posts a bit jumbled up.

                              Hey Sunny, I reckon if you, Mr G and Missy joined forces you’d be able to create a whole new set of workplace reform

                              Tawny, I also have some lovely possum fur gloves from NZ. They are a lovely red colour. So soft and warm.
                              Bought a pair of possum socks for my friend in Victoria.
