Yesterday afternoon when I got home, I noticed a bunch of stuff knocked around and that something had gotten into one of my trash cans. I also noticed all my mouse traps had the maggots and peanut butter licked off of them (had a BAD mouse problem last fall). mmmmmmm tasty. Also, the rubber seal on my garage door had a small hole chewed through it.
OK, I'm thinking some mice are back because of the really cool night time temps we've had lately. So I reset the mouse traps. I go out to the garage this morning to take the trash out and hear this banshee loud squeal. Wasn't a squirrel (I think). My dog went running to the garage and I yelled for her to come back. In the midst of all that, the sucker escaped and I didn't see it.
Now there's another big section of the seal chewed off the door, all the mouse traps were tripped and all the peanut butter licked off!
WTH! I must have a large rat in my garage!
I'm trapping it tonight.
Any guesses as to what it is?
