      yes, you cannot trap and relocate them without permits and to get those you have to prove you've tried to deter. The good news is, we hung a bunch of DVDs from the house.......and it looks very strange but so far it is working.

      One of my neighbors has covered one whole side of his house with aluminum foil. Woodpeckers don't like reflections

      We both have whats called T111 siding. It's sheet wood siding, plywood really. All the critter and bug and siding people tell me th...

      Woodpeckers don't like reflections. I learned something today Nadine. Multiple uses for DVDs. Sounds like a Jeopardy trivia, game show question under the category of Musical Gems. "What is Blinded By The Light Mr. Woodpecker for $800 Alex?" :)

      I was once talking to a friend from Alaska and he said he and many other families are members of fitness clubs. I said wow there must be a whole bunch of fit families. He said no but we're clean and have good personal hygiene. Of course my reaction was huh! He said as a back-up to your water line freezing they can now shower at the fitness center.

      good plan gfb,if you don't mind going there with bed head and bad breath! I discovered there was a fire hydrant on my street that some crew had opened and were letting shoot out water this a.m. I wonder if that caused my problems.

      Sorry to hear about your water pipe problem Nadine. Dripping your faucets at nights when the temperatures get bitterly cold & below zero is always a good idea. Frozen pipes in a house are the worst. I speak from experience on that 1 BTW.

      wasn't referring to you guys. Lately we've been seeing huge fonts excessive bolding......all caps and other things that make the board hard to read. Also been seeing what appear to be oversized images in signatures. Just asking people to have some restraint...people like things easy to read

      Carrots are good for your eyes, vision, & pupils. I'm with Brent though. They are best served in a pot roast. MMM Good! I'll meet you at Nadine's 100GFB. :)

      No more sightings but, now I have an explanation for all the weasel sized tunnels in my back garden.  I have a creek behind my house and so far I've seen back there a ground hog, 2 foxes, and now a weasel.  Did you know that weasels are the smallest carnivore and that they enjoy killing so much that they kill far more than they can eat?  they've taken care of the ground squirrel, pine squirrel, and regular squirrel problem I had, I thank them for that!

      I did not know that there were weasels in Indiana.  

       

    3. southwest1

      southwest1

      No, I didn't know that weasels are the smallest meat eaters or that they often kill more than they usually eat. A cool piece of wildlife trivia there. Good luck slowing the little pesky menaces down Nadine. 

    4. Nadine

      Nadine

      I'm ok with the weasel.  He's keeping the varmint problem to a minimum, which I appreciate.  I just don't want to run into the little demon!

      Printer complications are the worst from interface problems, to paper jams, to diagnostic issues. And why is printer cartridge ink so darn expensive or run out so fast? Grrr!

      reasonably new wireless printer goes into energy save mode as soon as you turn it on and nothing wakes it up and you cannot disable energy save mode.

      I read that there is a 'firmware' upgrade but I cannot figure out how to get it.  so freaking frustrating!

      i like the trade, sheppard was solid his last two years and i think he will be even better in a 3-4. While Jerry was improving, he just never seemed to give it his all and he wouldnt have made it over the other OLB'ers we have.

      I am sad that Peyton is gone, and in addition, SO many free agents from the Colts this year. From Management all the way to the other end of the spectrum, or down the ladder, or how ever you want to say it, A whole new team next year. I will need a paper roster for the start of the season.
