I had one of my old customers call me back, their not happy with the other company they had.
Seems like they couldn't catch this critter............they were trying to catch ....... never mind I can't tell you it makes them look real bad.

I set out two small cage traps and had this guy the next morning.
Its a "Bushy-tail Wood Rat" or better known as a "Pack Rat"
Kind of a cool looking critter.
