Hi Annie
Still some hogs here not tucked up for the winter, with regular nightly visits. I saw a rat one night but found a hole coming from my neighbours so blocked that off, although it will be easy enough for it to find another route (not least where the hogs come and go). Just have to hope it doesn’t think it’s worth the trouble.
I have a friendly robin around at the moment who makes his presence known every time I’m in the garden. Plenty of starlings around, too and the corvids finish off any left over hog food in the mornings.
Those glue traps sound ghastly. Seems crazy if they’re illegal to use still being legal to sell them! Hopefully that shop will not try to sell them again after your explanation.
I hope you have a good Christmas, too. It’s nice that the days are beginning to get longer again. It will soon be Spring!
