Adventures in home ownership ... a small mammal has taken up residence in our crawl space. Roxy alerted us by taking great interest in the floor where the old house meets the den addition. Mark went under this weekend and found evidence.

So, I called "Animal Crackers", a wildlife removal company, owned by Paul Schiffbauer, 757-374-3678. We met Paul last year when we called him to mediate a dispute: a possum and a snake were fighting over who owns our crawl space.

I called yesterday afternoon and he came out this morning to set a containment trap. He'll check it every day & then remove our uninvited guest.
