I imagine great and unsmiling efficiency, and probably lots of poison. I worry about residue of some kind in our apartment here, where flies seem to drop dead with alarming speed. I certainly don\'t envy you a ratvoll winter in Wedding. BIB -- I share your squeamishness. I have trouble even killing, or at least squishing, large spiders. Dead is fine, but I prefer action at a distance. We may make it this evening, but we are both unfortunately catching up on work after a long period of Konto-draining hookey. Another kind of karma...

I say cycle over the sods, but I'd be squeamish about the squelch. (Any chance of seeing you and a certain lovely young lady this evening?)

Kill one, there are plenty to take its place. But they're almost indestructable, as a winter with a bunch of rat traps in Wedding proved to me. Fortunately, they very rarely invade houses, and if they do the city'll take care of it for you. Enh. Kill one, there are plenty to take its place.
