    Yeah its the initial panic of "what the hell is that noise" that makes us reach out for the nearest professional in a specific area and we will pay good money to have them rid us of whatever ills, but in the cold light of day when all is ok and as you did Laura, we search the net for info, it comes about that in many cases we coudl ahev done these things ourselves,.

    As you say "live and learn"

    lmao...thanks Fred. Is that a look on the bright side type thing? I got a minute into that and had to turn it off. I'm not sure which was more disgusting...the roaches or the nastiness of the house. No wonder the roaches like it. :puke

    I watch that show every month or two. Is filmed an hour and a half away. When I saw the roaches in that trailer, I threw up a little in my mouth. I would grab the pets, the few valuables in the trailer, then burn it down. ;)

    Housekeeping 090 might be in order for some people. :-D

    I think it is better just to have a few mice in the attic than what those people had.

    lmao...can't say I disagree with you there. :-D

    Do you think those people don't get the correlation between the garbage laying all over their trailer and the roaches thinking it's a hotel for them?

    Made me laugh:-D Forget firemen,soldiers and cops,exterminators get most of hot girls,they selflessly place blue squares around our house's to keep us safe without considering their own safety,enough to make any red blooded girl week at the knees.

    Yikes...I used to be the receptionist for a pest control place, and I wouldn't have dated ANY of those guys! LOL

    We used to regularly joke about people who would pay us to do things they could've bought at the store, but there were quite a few chemicals only we had the license to use.

    Word of warning: The mice may go outside to find a drink, or, since it's winter, they may look for one inside your house. Make sure nothing is leaking or sweating or otherwise leaving a little drinking fountain for them. ;)

    I agree Rikky, part of the enjoyment of the show is the Dog The Bounty Hunter WTF are these people doing, and who would pay them to come to your home? :-D

    I rarely watch TV, kinda like that show for a few mins every month or two.

    roflmao You're not making me feel any better about my momentary lapse in sanity, Tibbs.

    I don't think we have any sweating things in the house. :-D

    Dog the bounty hunter roflmao That's who those exterminators remind me of:-D I think the wardrobe department dresses them all up with clothes from the badass rack.

    I am as quiet as a mouse, thirsty as an elephant and skinny like a snake. The only way to get rid of me is to hire a cute female pest control person. That or start laying out cake leading me out of the attic. :-D:-D

    I say just run some Cat5 up there, toss a laptop in the attic. Don't you have logs to read Tim? ;) Might get more work done in the attic with less distractions. :-D

    Someone turned the bug duster on too soon and Billy breathed some of it in.

    Not sound exciting? Not up there with the stories of soldiers who were surrounded by Taliban in Afghanistan?

    Listen to billy tell it;

    Did that work, have you removed mouse and man from your home with no lingering side effects?

    I think I like those blue cakes, might have to stock a few for emergencies.
