71440 2002-08-16 09:32:00 :^O LOL Heather. How the hell did you manage to kill the 'coon? If you haven't got a shotgun they sure take some beating.

Did you know that the most effective mouse bait to put in a trap is chocolate? True! It never fails, as long as it's secure on the prong. The only problem I have is wrestling a piece off hubby to put on the trap.

A few years ago hubby had some Cadbury's Fruit & Nut in a Trapper Nelson pack hanging on a garage beam on a nail. When he got it down after a month or so for a trip he found that the F&N had shrunk quite a bit with tell-tale "saw" marks around the edges. Must have been well worth the trouble the little beastie went to to get it.

No way I'd ever let them have chocolate. I'd wake up in the morning with a very sore tongue.

Looks CAN kill. (Ask my children).

But your children are still alive Heather.

JM, peanut butter may be good, but chocolate is failproof. Why would your tongue be sore in the morning, anyway?
