And rat urine carries leptospirosis...curable in people with doxycycline
now....but that used to kill a lot of rat catchers in the old days. Needless
to say, my dogs get their shots regularly.

Recipe for Carla Flambe!
I for once had to deal with rats. bigguns..footlongers with sharp teeth the
kind they have on all the halloween specials..
so my brothers mixed an acid that they use to clean the pipes out on dairy
farms with some clorine sanitizer one day to watch the colors..needless to
say we had to evacute the dairy barn.. no cows they were long gone we were
cleaning walls that day. we came back a few hours later to discover every
fly,gnat, mouse and rat all dead. even in the feed room. Sooo mom had us
kids do this every four months.. needless to say we cleared out some serious
rat problem.
Do you want to hear the scary thing.. these buggers get into the cow feed
and urinate and farmers being farmers feed this contaminated feed to the
cows. Scary part I was so young that I remember clumps of it being fed to my
horse.
Carla (going out on a limb here)
Ansata (YOU WHAT???)
Haley *wondering if feed flavor has changed*
Rob (heard plenty about the rats..ugh..)
