    I have a mouser!

    Last winter, mice moved into my home from the fields, and I had to remove them with snap traps. It was unpleasent for me, and very unpleasent for the mice. This will be an annual occurance, and I was really not looking forward to the seasonal death-dealing.

    Fortunately, that's no longer a problem, as I have discovered that a cute little guy that eats mice has taken up residence.

    That's right, a snake! I walked down into the basement just in time to see him slither into the joist space between the finished room and the basement wall. Gorgeous jet black with that polished leather sheen, must be at least a yard long.

    I'm guessing it's a rat snake.

    No, I did not steal that from somebody on Something Awful.

    Cool!

    Maybe you can give him an electric blanket or some shredded newspaper to keep warm. Sounds like you have a nice environmentally friendly rodent control system installed!

        I'm thinking about setting out a bowl of water down there.

            Good, maybe it will drown.

              self, I'm calling it a black rat snake at the moment; it matches the description and the territory.

              Sloww...you're not afraid of a harmless little snake, are you?

                If I was afraid too much, I'd run away.

                  So you're just afraid enough to go on irrational stomping sprees?

                    You have a new friend! Make him a sweater using a tube sock.

                            He's a Pokemon, is why he asks. He's looking for some fellow Pokemons.
