"The house is held together with bug poop"?
I think that your bug problem might have a lot to do with the area where you now live, Liz. I have a problem with mice but, according to my neighbors, everybody in this town has them. Of course, the fact that I refuse to kill them doesn't help, either... Right now, I have another 'pet' mouse (the original one died recently -they only live about 3 years or so, apparently) because one of my bad cats (these are the ones that actually kill the mouse they catch) had caught it and, when I pried it out of his mouth (it was Moono), I saw that it was a little one and that he had a wound on his leg so I couldn't very well put him outside, as I normally do, because it would have a been a sure death sentence for him.
