Dsole said...: Someone throw it away and left it there no? because he/she was discovered by the police and has to remove all the proofs.. ;) So there is something very valuable!

Congratulations to Carol (and she's not even a Southerner, afaik)! This is indeed a tamperproof rodent bait station to catch mostly palm rats, which thrive in Florida (like the rest of us;-).
Thanks all for playing and next week's puzzle will be harder...; Wednesday, January 10, 2007 at 1:51:00 PM GMT+1
The Wellspring said...: We had those same rat boxes in Chicago - where the rats were so big and fat they waddled down the alley instead of scampering. Isn't that a lovely thought? :); Thursday, January 11, 2007 at 2:27:00 PM GMT+1
