Hey Temp. So far as creepy crawlies are concerned, you can try peacock feather. I am sure you haven't tried it yet. Stick some on walla of your house and see them running away...but I can't advise anything about "word-pecking, word-blasting poets".

WOW! Temporal,thats the first poem written for me even if it was inspired by my pest ordeal;) I could write another one for the doe eyed baby mouse I found in my kellog's box last night but alas I'm not much of a poet and for writing this poem next time you and M are here I will make a special dinner for you guys:)

Excellent - we can read out this poem to the rats and lizards and lull them to sleep, then spring on them with a fiendish cackle!
