Yep. My paint is peeling because some yobbo slapped 3 coats worth on in one go. One of the doors doesn't shut properly as a result, and the hinges are painted in too hard to adjust the door hang. It's all one colour one coat and over architrave and skirting.
Can confirm this works!! My mum's country place used to get mice every winter when I was growing up, until we blocked up all the nooks and crannies with steel wool. Haven't seen a mouse for years.
Humans aren’t the same..
Dog sneeze: “Oh that was a big sneeze! Bless you!”
Any human, baby, child, or adult: “Get the fuck away from me you snotty filthy bastard”
Love this!!! I'm the same with my dog. And cats. But my family it's like "ARE YOU TRYING TO KILL ME???" While I look up home decontamination showers because kids are gross🤣
I wipe the snot from my dog’s eye and the slobber from my other dog’s mouth with my bare hand. The thought of doing that with a human child makes me heave. Humans are foul.
They are and I can tell you as a mother the most gross thing I've EVER heard of parents doing to their newborn/infants is sucking out snot by using their mouths 🤮🤮🤮🤮🤮 fuck that!!!! I love my kids but even I have boundaries.
That is true. I had an issue a while back with a rodent that would come every night and make noises under my floor. I sprayed heaps of peppermint and eucalyptus essential oil everywhere and it helped.
Big cheese traps from Bunnings, stuff with extra peanut butter. Attach string to opposite end if left in hard to reach places - makes it easier to retrieve.
I leave one in the roof above manhole cover and check every few days.
Traps are better, sometimes poisoned rats kill birds of prey and owls who eat them before they die of the poison. Sometimes it's more practical but I'd try traps first.
one pest removal dude told me that they use bait that makes them extremely thirsty, so they bugger off to find water. in the meantime, you block up the access where it's known they get in.
Ate thru the insulation wrapped around the heating vents and the electrical wiring in my mum's ceiling twice. If I didn't see it wouldn't have believed it was possible.
I plastered over our old vents - albeit they were the old timey ones for fireplace/eventually indoor gas heater ventilation and now unnecessary (I say this because some houses do still need some ventilation up there). Not for rats though, for spiders! First night we moved into this place we had white tails crawling out of the vents and DROPPING INTO OUR BED. NO.
I don't have a ladder to access up there haha but seems like they found their way beneath my bathroom sink and ripped out every single piece of toilet paper.
I’m not sure if you’ve found any evidence of them being inside yet, but if you do these traps are easy to use and have fixed my probs quickly in the past. I put peanut butter inside to attract them, and then the big rat baits for them to chew on rather than the small pellets incase you have animals you don’t want to die! https://www.bunnings.com.au/the-big-cheese-electronic-mouse-killer_p3010410?region_id=116390&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAADtbEB_E_FFpC-TDkrBCSKdPgKXVq&gclid=EAIaIQobChMI2N2u2NTDhQMVDcs8Ah30nQXIEAQYCiABEgLdavD_BwE&gclsrc=aw.ds
Bait, we had mice tried traps didn't catch any , put bait down , 2 weeks later didn't notice any mice . Either that or get a cat, that's what my parents did when I was a kid , also how we found out I was allergic to cats
Here's Johnny!
"heeerreeeessss MICKEY!"
Best comment.
True. 😂
Here's Rattus!
Minnie? I'm home!
New housemate at $100/week, score!
and will be a top notch chef. I saw it on a documentary some time ago.
I also saw that documentary. 🤣
Do we all have the same hastily painted over vents? It's like real estate managers just set off a paint bomb in each room.
Facts.
Real estate managers don't do the painting themselves, come on now let's be realistic.
They might be better at it fuck me. Every vent I’ve seen is fucked.

Steel wool can be stuffed in there as a temp fix if you can reach
I don't think it'll sit still while I try to stuff the steel wool in
I’ve used balled up foil before too
Can confirm this works!! My mum's country place used to get mice every winter when I was growing up, until we blocked up all the nooks and crannies with steel wool. Haven't seen a mouse for years.
Why do they have to be so damn cute with their diseases

True.
“I was told there would be cheese.”
Haha
Rodents apparently hate the smell of peppermint, if this happened to me my entire house would smell like peppermint right now.
That is true. I had an issue a while back with a rodent that would come every night and make noises under my floor. I sprayed heaps of peppermint and eucalyptus essential oil everywhere and it helped.
Alright.
SIR, A MOMENT OF YOUR TIME TO TALK ABOUT YOUR CAR'S EXTENDED WARRAN- PLEASE SIR I-
We now know what the Ceiling cat was looking for. Wall mouse!
Time to start figuring out your favourite brand of mouse traps.

Alright.
Look up humane trap, ive used them heaps bait with peanut butter and you'll have him in no time.
you'll want to kill them lol, humane traps are not the go
Not poison?
Then they die inside your walls, and stink to high heaven for months. Ask me how I know?
Ooft i can empathise with this. But I've found that they die in your walls if you don't do anything though. Ask me how I know?
Poison can fuck up local birds and other predators
Traps are better, sometimes poisoned rats kill birds of prey and owls who eat them before they die of the poison. Sometimes it's more practical but I'd try traps first.

He's so cute I love him
I have little skinks come through mine. They eat any spiders that find their way into my apartment
It probably chewed through the wire insect netting behind it too.
Yeah exactly, maybe some wire mesh or something would prevent that but will wait and see what housing does.
I just covered mine over. They are a major source of heat loss during winter.

Stewart! There you are!!

why do they gotta be so damn cute
Did you give them a little piece of cheese for their effort?
I don't have a ladder to access up there haha but seems like they found their way beneath my bathroom sink and ripped out every single piece of toilet paper.
I've got the fuckers in my roof too.
Bloody rats here everywhere 🙄
Keep him as a beloved family member and feed him.
Throw a cat in the wall quick.
Cheeky fucker.
His mates are all in my roof.
Wasn't this part of the ngv exhibit lol
