Yep, Funny reminds me of the time I was out on the baseball field
smashing a golpher with a baseball bat. Some mom came up and
said how cruel. I said tell me that after your kid blows out a knee
running down a ball and steps in one of these holes. Nuf

Subject: [RC] Rodent Dispatching and
cruelty...... not a good comparison
It is very difficult to kill a possum. Had
to buy my first weapon, a 22 rifle, for that purpose. The possum was
fighting my dog for the dog food. So just what is so cruel about
defending one's property?????? I doubt that those chickens felt very
nice being pulled apart. I have lost a lot of chickens to raccooms
and possums, not to mention coyotes. Oh, yeah, the mice they don't eat
much but can run up your arm when scooping for grain and also carry some nasty
diseases. When the damn things ate some horse tack, that meant
war. An old friend told me that rats like EX LAX. We had rats in
our office in Baghdad. He said they used to put it out yrs ago at a grainery
where he worked. Seems the EX LAX gives them diarrhea which makes them
thirsty and dehydrated and they go outside looking for water and die.
Now it won't work during the rainy season and you have to have no water supply
in the area. Just some of my experiences. Oh, the new
replacements did not worry about the rats but when I left it was there
problem. The damn thing got on my desk and ate my jalapena cheese
package.... which was a highly valued commodity. Mary
