Oh Rats!

A couple of winters ago, we had a rat infestation in our attic even though the exterminator didn't believe us. Seventeen dead critters later, (I had to empty the traps myself) I still don't think they believed we had rats.

Anyway, I was sitting in my chair yesterday evening and happened to look over toward the bird feeder. It's strategically placed so I can watch the birds eat without getting up. And low and behold, there's a big fat rat going after the seed. I chased it away and later I saw a smaller rat doing the same thing.

I asked Jimbob to call the exterminator today while I was at work but he forgot. I just don't want the nasty things in the garage and attic again.
