It is definately feeling a lot like fall today.

I love this time of year.  I love the way it's kind of chilly out.  But, even though there are all kinds of reasons why I love this time of year, there is one thing that I do not look forward to at all. 

Every year at this time we have to be on the look out for pests.  I am talking about mice specifically.  Our house is on a crawl space foundation and I think that might make it easier for them to get in. 

This all started after we first bought our house.  Fall came and so did the mice.  I'm not a fan of mice at all.  But I also do not like the idea of paying exterminators to come out to my house and do the exterminating.

We have gotten very good at doing our own pest control

We pay special attention to keeping our food in air tight storage containers and also keeping our counters and floors clean.

Iput traps out this time every year just in case.  So far we hav had good results when we make this a priority every fall.
