Advice For Solving My Rat Problem.I Hope This Is The Sort Of Advice You Give.

Advice for solving my rat problem. I hope this is the sort of advice you give.

Second Reader,

Rats are not an issue i commonly deal with, but were a real problem when I was in prison. Taka's presence helped greatly, though I begged her not to actually consume the things...I knew they put out poison out for the animals.

I would recommend ensuring every food you have be kept in air-tight containers. Rats can chew through much more then Mice can, but if they can't smell food, they'll be less likely to try. Metal cans are good for this, but not the only option. If they have already discovered where you keep yours, you may try moving your storage. Anything they have already gotten open must be disposed of immediately.

If you know of a way for rats to get in, do your best to seal it. an open crawl space is an invitation, even without their ability to chew a new entry point. You can not truly rat-proof your home, but you can insure they work for it.

Set out traps, and do not balk at the idea of lethal ones. It is well and good to respect the lives of animals, but if they stay you will be at risk for serious illness, and if you release them elsewhere then they will scourge another family instead. Releasing them far away from humans is merely turning them lose on an unsuspecting wild population-either they will die, or the animals they meet will. besides that, releasing rodentia is often illegal, for exactly the reasons I just listed. Better to give them a swift death then prolonging suffering-do not subject them to starvation and harsh weather. Kill them to start.

Now, for the other options...you may either get a ratter, or you may poison them. DO NOT UTILIZE BOTH. Taka made herself ill once eating rats that had been poisoned whilst I was in prison, and it was a bloody fucking nightmare. Thankfully, the likelihood of your hunter getting poisoned by the prey is rare, a dose low enough for a rat to survive is typically low enough for your hunter to manage, but it's not worth the risk.

On that note, if you do intend to get a ratter, be aware of possible symptoms. Rats carry illness, and while a Cat is designed to feed on meat, you need to be aware of possible parasites they may pick up. Keep a veterinarian posted of any change in behavior.

If all else fails, Call an exterminator. Stay somewhere else while they work, and return home, hopefully rat free.

Death is part of life, and your home is your castle. Feel no sympathy for the rats who care not for you.

Are you religious?

Well, maybe a little?

When I was a little boy Nana would take me to church with her. Pap pap came too, if he wasn't on duty.

I'm not always at church now, but I always make time to go on Easter, and when i can manage it, I go to the Christmas service with Nana. Its tough getting the time off, but I always try!

I think that Simon likes very sweet foods, specifically because it's really funny to imagine him walking into a coffee shop. The person making the coffee sees this large, intimidating goth british person. Their immediate assumption is that he wants just straight black coffee. And then he orders the most god-forsaken abysmal "How are you not having a heart attack right now" drink you've ever heard of.

okay guys hear me out. what if simon was clingy (i am toootally not projecting. totally not)

(Gonna start a new post so the other one doesn’t get too long)

Well of course I call him dad, I can’t exactly call him “mom” now can I? Not cause he’s a man, but because my mom is… well… I don’t want to call anyone else mom other than my biological mom.

And if you give me a minute, I can get Dad over here to meet you! Just hang tight…

What in the blazes-

…Who are you? Are you really me from another reality? You arent as good-looking as I, but I suppose that’s to be expected from alternative realities.

You two look practically the same.

Nonsense.

I'm Simon Blackquill, and that is what I have been told, you overgrown skunk. Such a hideous visage, how ever did you manage to find a partner looking like that?

*as far as anyone looking can tell, they are, in fact, the same person, looking equivalent.*

Regardless, you have managed it, and cultivated a strong enough bond with the man's daughter that she refers to you not as her fathers partner, nor your first name, but as 'dad'. commendable, if a tad confusing.

Did you not find your....experiences in the past making a relationship different? or are your circumstances different then my own?

Baffled,
