year stray that comes in. Every blue moon We notice a flower gets
eaten, so occasionally they come in at night.

My motivation was a couple years back I was picking up ticks just
walking breifly in my yard. Since then, I have not picked up a tick
that i know of.

funny story. I had some tree work done and, dismantled a 20' foot
section of fence so the tree guy could drop the tree into the woods.
That opening was only open for three hours. As I was gathering
materials to restore the 20' breach, I headed to the opening. Would
you believe there where two deer at the the opening curiously
investigating it. Ridiculous. And this was after 2 hours of chainsaws....

Damn long legged rats.
