Last night we heard a crashing noise outside the front of our house. This morning we found the drain pipe disconnected and teeth marks where it was pulled out from the house. Once again TOTV saved the day and solved the mystery; a while back there was a story about people's drain pipes being chewed up and the problem was solved when it was discovered that small animals running from predators were trying to escape into the pipe and the nasty predator chews the pipe trying to disloge the critter. Sad story.....By the way the teeth marks were not small.

Our village is approximately 8 years old and only recently have I seen rabbits and one lone squirrel. The other day I opened the hose box and saw a possum sleeping in the bottom. My garbage has never been touched which I find surprising but now I can see that the critters are moving back into this area. Coyotes are everywhere, they had a couple of them in Central Park in NYC.
