    council people lay poison, poison kill puppy xxx

  • Oh, I thought they put down those traps that look like boxes that are puppy and cat proof? Sorry!
    But there are dreams that cannot be,and there are storms we cannot weather!
  • Our local zoo sells the lion poo which I understand deters other creatures because they think there's a predator about, but whether this would work for rats I don't know. The problem is that where you see one, there's a whole gang not far away that in themselves will pose a risk to small animals like puppies. The council may have a range of solutions so costs nothing to ask x

    RAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! in my garden!!!!! ahhhhhhhhh!!! topsy has gone nuts trying to get it!
    how do i get rid of it without poisoning topsy? x help!!!

    we had them in the loft but had to use poison and the pest control laid them down, but in the garden he laid down, a trap that had poison inside a box but only the rats can get to the poison and then comes back out, but i really suggest getting hold of the council who can refer you to the pest control section. we had them last year and this year and got rid of them 2 weeks ago...its suck a old house that they get into the loft when it starts to get cold, but thankfully after 3 visits all gone, and if there is one there will be more usually...
    :D

    re: ebay, you get charged more aswell dont you for selling things for a certain price on buy it now dont ya?
    Aww poor buffy, and Topsy hope they are both ok with the fireworks.
    Toni - ewwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww rats:eek: We caught a mouse the other day, in the outhouse bit and dh is convinced there is one in the house, he thinks there is one in the front room because he sez he can smell it, I say the smell is probably from little woks when he was having accidents on the carpet and it needs a good thorough clean, but one of my survey sites are sending me some vanish carpet granules so that will come in handy.
    waffle waffle, lol
    :D The headmistress stopped me in the playground this morning:eek: to say how well little woks was settling in:D and today he got one super sticker, one star sticker and one excellent sticker:j:j:j:D they do say he is very quiet though, HA they should live with him and answer all his questions, dd is always saying to him 'do you ever shut up:rolleyes: 'to which he replies 'No'
    to be updated:;)
  • I think it is different prices wokkies - I know when I get cashback for buying things on ebay it's about 50% of the fees you get as cashback and I never know how much it will be till I get it even for things the same amount. See you're not the only one who can waffle lol!
