Welcome Dave,
I'm the fence-sitter
I love all rodents and never have a problem with them. But when they have to be controlled, I'd rather they were dealt with by a professional like you, who can give them a more humane death, than by some amateur who doesn't know what he's doing.
I'm fairly new here too. This is a great learning resource. I hope you find as many things to enjoy here as I do
Looking forward to learning more.
Andestine
