You can Google the Latin name for Brown rats. There is such a species and no color of the rate is not the main source of identification, where they live is. Black rats, the climbers, can live in the same location as Brown rats |

How do you question a "long time habitat about palm trees" and what is the surprise? What would a resident say if they bought new landscaping from a landscaper? Very few people have to dig out trees, etc., because they "over grow." Plants get diseases because of many different reasons but not "feeding them right" is not one of the causes. "Beware of landscapers trying to sell you stuff?" That's their profession and that's how they earn a living. Not all rats like or eat "palm fruit." |

Oh Boy, on another thread. Not questioning a LTH. The statement was "IF". What would a resident say, I would say, "Cool". Very few is relative. Not a relative of mine. Not even a second cousin. Ohhhhhhhhhhh, don't feed, nasties will happen. Selling stuff????........98.3% understand the statement. Will PM you and explain. Palm Fruit: Not sure mom put that on my plate. Not sure I can speak for a ran. |

Once again, I ask... how do these crazy rats get in your attic? Are they eating through the soffit material?

Many people have had to have plants and bushes removed because they become too big and too dense. We removed a few this year, after eight years. It is amazing how big they get with lots of rain and sunshine. Small plants and bushes quickly become way too big plants and bushes here in Florida. That is a fact anyone can see by watching their new foundation plantings grow for about two years. Plants not well fertilized are indeed more vulnerable to disease. Many opportunistic Landscapers can, will and do take advantage of the newbies and do charge them far more than they should. My advice is to wait and see for a year and talk to neighbors and friends before you change your landscaping.

There is a book you can get for free about native Florida plants. With photos. It was suggested probably 7 years ago by the guy who installs the Nova systems. I'm having a brain spasm and cannot remember his screen name. Anybody? I think the book was free. He had a link. I would search it if I could remember his screen name.
