How about a water moccasin or cottonmouth likes your flower bed and sets up a den there? Skunks were here before us also. It would be quite aromatic if they decided to make a den beside your house! No problem, right?

Just thought about this. Rats and mice were here before us and so were termites, but people do their best to eliminate them. Remember they were here first!
Hmmmm….but you also need to consider “squatters rights”. Very hard to get a court order to get that vermin to move out of your property once they get all settled in. (Lol)
