Last week contractors undertook work to the field drains
next door to us. In so doing they presumably disturbed the rats which must nest
there, as this week the greenhouse at the bottom of our garden has been
visited.
This in turn has given rise to a challenge for Outdoor Man
to rid our premises of the rodents.
It was in language reminiscent of a description of the
perpetrator of domestic violence that he referred to the stinking rats and
vermin as he sought my opinion.
I had to confess that I did not think that the expertise I
had acquired in obtaining ouster orders during my practicing years would assist
to any extent. It seems, however, that he was not considering an injunction and
really wanted my view on the different types of rat poison.
Why ever would he think that a retired divorce solicitor would be an
expert on toxic substances?
