When we arrived at our house after having been gone for almost 6 months, we found that some critters had worked the whole time in preparing us a special surprise.
The first critter that we found was this normally scary thing. This one, however, was not scary as it had long ago died. I think it got stuck in our kitchen sink and died of starvation. No food and no way to escape. This is the one and only one we’ve ever seen in or around our house. Hopefully this is the last.
We found tons of evidence of other creatures. We wept and gnashed our teeth as we cleaned the house (every single nook and cranny) for 2 days and found countless things the mice gotten into and destroyed. So, we found all the traps we owned and Tom set them.
We caught 2 of those havoc-wreaking creatures and I found another one dead in my room. One of the guys on our team was a hero and cleaned it up!
So, now we know better how to pack things up when we leave the village. Hopefully next time, we will have a surprise-free arrival! 🙂
