This thread has taken an interesting turn. That's a bummer about Main! Potential business opportunity?
I do appreciate the reminder of electric fencing Fritz. I might be getting a setup soon.
And Tami, I have started chumming ;)

Thanks for asking! It's finally looking presentable, if I do say so!
The main problem is keeping the rabble out.

Along with chumming and the rat cages, I put up more traps. Now I just have to get mom and dad.
Other than that, Im looking ok.

Don't fret - a few more short years of Global Warming and you too can have tomatoes in June!

Hahaha, Tami. It's been friggen hotter than blazes here! The Okra is happy as hell. Today will be the first "cool" day in 2 weeks. Besides that, I live in San Diego where you get "paid with palm trees" as I was told by a former employer once.
Got daddy rat last night. Mom is still out there.....probably preggers

There's the source of your rat problem right there.
Once I got rid of my palms, the rats all disappeared.
Now, it's mice, and they live mostly in the garage.
That's where this guy comes in.

Don't worry Reilly. It was all done very professionally, blue gloves and all.
Actually, it's pretty hard to not know on adults...
Gotta have balls to be a rat

Paul, I can eat animals, I just choose not to for purely selfish reasons. And when they try to decimate my garden, it's on!
My rat problem has been minimal of late. This is after I treated them as tree rats and put the traps up high. It's been 2 weeks since we've any real rat issues. Just minor damage now.

All that's missing is a few serranos, couple of limes, cilantro and salt.
And a bottle of tequila.

I have both tomatoes and tomatillos growing too. I am in the middle of the tomato harvest but tomatillos are a long way away yet. I am pretty good with heat but so many peppers challenge everything. A couple years ago I had a huge harvest and cleaned about 100 of them at once without gloves. My hands burned so bad for a few hours I will never make that mistake again!

Soooooooooooo Tami..............How are those Canadian tomatoes coming?
We are on to peppers, and our first stab at growing bitter melon. Saving one gourd for seed stock for next year.
