Oh Yeah. They're predators. I have 3 females and I'm told males are not as bad but it sounds like yours is. The girls get birds, lizards, rodents and assorted bugs and they bring them all in the house with pride. However, a large spider skittering across the kitchen floor is occasion only for some mild curiosity. I'm trying everything I can think of to protect the birds and lizards short of gettiing rid of my beloved kitties. The bugs and mice are on their own. Vanessa

Iron phosphate based slug killer is sold by other brands besides Sluggo. Look for Ortho Ecosense at Ace and other hardware stores. Home Depot carries Dr. Ts' Slug bait. and Espoma is another brand carried at many box stores. But Ken is right, the easiest source is to let your fingers do the walking on the internet. I have to make a comment about the Bill Mayer article. Although he does raise a valid point, he forgot to mention that even TABLE SALT ingested in large quantity can be fatal. If your dog gets into the slug bait bag and eats it like dog food, yes there is going to be a consequence, but a few pellets sprinkled around a hosta is not likely to kill or make sick much more than very small creatures.... hopefully slugs, and unfortunately yes earthworms are also at risk.... For that matter 10% ammonia solution is hardly a safe alternative either.... Lets just keep things in perspective, ounce per ounce iron phosphate bait is by far a safer pesticide than metaldyhyde.

Will this game be easier if we just post one "Find Me"? And two choices? Then we can use the URL link. So lets modify this to two choices "Find me A or B". Here's a pink poodle! Find me: Dog loving a cat OR Pink Dalmation Here is a link that might be useful:

Well, I can help you halfway. I have cheetah print runner going up my curved staircase and the upstairs foyer is carpeted with it as well. I am so bummed I don't have a pic but I can tell you I love it and so does everyone - seriously, everyone - who sees it! I have had it installed for about three months now and I still love looking at it. I seriously doubt I will tire of it for a very long time. It looks fab with my red walls and doesn't compete with the Persian rugs in the front foyer. It is not a super small print yet it works with almost everything. Another plus is that is hides dirt and lint! It rarely looks like it needs vacuuming, even in a high traffic area. I have included a link to my pattern...
