I can send you the bag of dog poop I was left this weekend - that may work!!!???

We had a rat in the garden in the summer, Dad and Dave decided it had to die (in case it brought its mates around) - they are both very squemish so seeing these 2 big guys trying to hit this rat with a spade with their eyes shut was a sight.
Any more humane ways of killing a captured rat for next time welcome.

Ah yes, I noticed it was a gun immediately... perhaps I've been living too long in the land of no-gun-control.

When your rodents start to appear heavily armed, it's time to think up a new pest control strategy.

I didn't see a gas mask... how about some tear gas and flash grenades?

Although actually, that's a very intimidating rodent... maybe you could hire him as a personal bodyguard. I certainly wouldn't mess with a squirrel armed with an AK-47.

Every year we get these horrible creepy-crawlies called house centipedes. Lots of legs, terrifyingly prehistoric, 3-8 cm long. Harmless, but hard to kill. I'm still looking for the best way to kill those...

Oh, goodness... next thing you know you'll have a beaver driving a tank! Before you know it you'll need some ICBMs to take care of your pest problem.

I wonder if the li'l guy knows which is the dangerous end of the bazooka (I don't)!

I think we need a new section of the forum just for Paul Carmel's pics. Some days I only log on to see what "alias" he is currently using :D . So far I've fallen in love with Seymour and the hamster with the machine gun!

Seiously, we need a "Paul Library" just so folks can understand some of the comments that are made. Once the pic changes, folks could think from the comments that the lunatics have taken over .....
