well, been resisting entering this thread but since it continues I'll
add one with a different twist. A small console piano in a small church
in a large field at the edge of town. Lots of field mice and a crack in
the wall behind the pulpit that they had difficulty keeping closed. Not
much of a mouse problem for a time, then one day the minister called.
Mice had really taken over, taking damper felts, front rail punchings,
etc. The minister explained that for a long time a bull snake had lived
in the church and had done a good job of controlling the mice. He had
not told anyone about the snake for fear it would not set well with some
of the members. One evening during a committee meeting the snake made an
appearance. End of snake. End of live mouse trap. End of story.
Moral: Be kind to bull snakes.
