What you found is a whore. A lascivious, debauched whore. A harlot, if you will. A tart, or a tawdry hussy, if you prefer.

Traditionally, you would take said slut and punish her for her licentious ways by gathering the men of the village and performing ant bukkake to remind her what a pervert she is for promotign such wanton lust among we decent men folk.

Enclosure I made. Bought one kg of mouse and rat food. Wat do. Did I do gud or is it ded.

>>2372902

A vole maybe? I guess it could be sumkinda mouse.

But it doesn't look like it was built to fight at all. Literally any ambush predator that manages to sneak up on it will almost always win due to its body shape alone. The mantis looks more like its designed for sneak attacks, which it is.

idgaf mantids are GOAT

it looks like it was made to eat the manlets after it mated with them

..oh wait

yeah, looks like you have a brown recluse colony living in there.

>>2372834
You should get them removed, even though brown recluse dont have an aggressive behaviour their bite is highly venomuous

I took this picture in Norway, there should not be any Brown Recluses here from my knowledge.. Any tips on how to remove it? It looks damn scary lol

Meme dog. You might as well just get a cat if you want a standoffish stubborn little shit.

don't get a meme dog

>>2372603
They're very pretty, but they don't act like dogs at all. They only allow themselves to be pet when they feel like it and are often aloof and distant, even to their owners. They act like you should thank them for allowing you to exist in their presence. Definitely not the friendliest breed, and this is coming from someone who owns chows.

>bringing disgusting vermin in off the street

I'm not an expert on litter training, just an idea, so someone please correct me if this isn't feasible- but could you just train her to come outside to go like a dog? That way she could have a designated outdoor spot to go that people don't need to fuck with, and maybe a backup box inside in case she really has to go when you're not around. I'm not suggesting keeping her as an outdoor cat, just giving her scheduled potty breaks in a different environment. But if that's not how cat behavior is supposed to work then forget I suggested it.

>>2372295
Eh, I'm not sure how well that would work. Some cats are very trainable, but this one...isn't. We have a hard time getting her to even come when she's called, haha.

>>2372128
Thanks for your biased and prejudiced opinions OP, luckily for the rest of society we may be smart enough to see through your one sided post and know that not everything you say is true of all dog owners, and not take anything you say as fact as well.
But hey if your little rant makes you feel better than who am I to interfere, I'll just consider the source and move on. Enjoy.

Anyone else kind of grossed out by dogs with clear nails?

I find the dark ones really cute, but the white / clear ones are unsettling

Why not both?
Some are black, some white.

>>2371526
Are dogs nails like cats nails in that you have to be very careful about trimming them since there's a nub in the middle of it with a ton of nerve endings?

>>2371420
that is far far far from a baby. a baby could fit in your hand. he has already outgrown the tub. if you have to duct tape the mouth shut then it is already too big

>>2371420
You would need to have an enclosure the size of a backyard with a pool converted into a pond, granted you are not keeping the alligator illegally. If you cannot accommodate, you must release for the animal's sake.

>>2371420

Release it you idiot. Or barbecue it. Both better options than what you're doing now.

>>2371397
I do not kill any insects other than ants. They are the worst, please continue killing them.

I have a similar policy. As long as they aren't taking over the place. I dont leave food around. I only kill houseflies because they cant be caught and breed fast enough to over run me. If it can be caught and put out and isnt already at plague numbers, I just put them in a jar and put them out later.

Lately, something weird's been going on.

I had a platoon of little ants doing patrols from my kitchen to bathroom. There werent many so I left them alone.

One day I look and its like ant Jonetown. Little dead ants all over in the bathroom and I have no idea why. All I can figure is maybe they were nipping at water in the shower after I used cleanser on it. I felt bad.

A day or so later a bunch show up and appear to be carrying off their dead. Moreover, I though ants were diurnal. I went to use the bathroom the other night and they were doing their funeral procession in the middle of the night.

Idk wtf these ants are up to but its sort of creepy. Its like the ants of NIMH or something.

if you use vinegar as a cleaning solution on your floors it will get rid of the ants scent trails and they will be hopelessly lost in your house.
The acidity of vinegar breaks the trails down.

the sugar+borox solution will kill them, but wont stop them from coming in your apartment.
infact it will encourage them becaue they see it as food and will leave a trail leading other ants to the food.

Ants have two stomachs one acts as pocket that they then bring to the nest and feed the other ants and the brood, Borox kills them too quickly and the poison doesn't spread throughout the whole nest.

Pain in the ass during rut
Taste good
Ive hunted them before but honestly I would rather go after small game.
