Oh no Bower! So sorry to hear about the Rat Radisson (good one Worth)
.
Do you know anyone with a Jack Russell Terrier that you could borrow for a while? They are excellent ratters I hear. Wish you lived closer as I have a friend who would be delighted to lend you hers for some fun exercise.
Guess you need to toss the horse manure in the woods along with the discarded tomato debris
It might help it to degrade faster. Ugh!
Hang in there!
Linda
