It was critter prevention day today at my house so we had our regularly-scheduled visit from the exterminator. Call me silly, but I have this thing about unwanted "guests" and like to keep the creepy crawlies and unloved four-legged furry beasts down to the barest minimum, preferably far away altogether. Living in a rural area, we get more than our fair share - spiders, crickets, ants, earwigs (they used to enjoy coming in to watch the 11 pm news,) mice, squirrels & birds (who liked to nest in our chimney,) moles, groundhogs, skunks, snakes - you name it, we've probably seen it hanging around, chewing on the shed, or dropping in to pay a visit at one time or another.Oh yeah - tres exciting day, the bugman came! God, I must get out more!*sigh*

Hope the bugman took care of all your creepy crawlies! We have a critter man who comes to our house frequently, trying to eradicate the huge mole population in our backyard. Can't seem to get rid of those varmints!
How funny - my Bug Guy came on Tuesday!
We always have an earwig problem when the weather goes from cool to hot. I'm expecting those little critters in a a few weeks. Sigh...
We have a lot of those too, and this reminds me that I need to get my husband to spray. We used to do the indoor extermination thing, but now we just do it ourselves. :)
