Don't leave animal food on the lanai. Do not feel bad about not feeding the birds, the birds have plenty to eat provided by Mother Nature, on duty 24/7.

They are palm rats. We chose not to have palm trees.
We heard this when we 1st moved here....don't have palm or fruit trees or you'll have rats!! So we didn't!!! Our neighbors grow veggies and have had who eat them before they can be picked!!
