There is a rat in our room…
I saw him scurrying up the wall our
second morning here but decided to ignore him. After all I was safe
in my mosquito netted top bunk and it was early and if I said
anything Logan Kanyes would surly have a strong reaction. Proud I
didn’t freak out- 1 point for World Racers.
Then Alissa’s tooth brush case was
gnawed through and part of her toothbrush had small nibbles taken out
of it. Ashley discovers that her toothpaste has been chewed into. 2
points to the Rat.
Next day Ashley finds a huge hole
chewed into her skirt. Alissa’s new toothbrush (which was an extra
I lent her) has completely disappeared out of her bag. Days later we
still can’t find it. 2 more points to the Rat.
Logan’s toothbrush gets gnawed on and
Logan freaks out. 5 points to the rat. (Logan is a verbal processor)
Alissa finds the only safe place to store her toothbrush is in an empty water bottle in a small alcove above the our door. One point to Alissa. But also one point to Rat for making us resort to such measures.
Rat makes noise all through night and
keeps 3 of us up. Rat 10, World Racers 2
After debating with locals what to do
about rat problem we decide to buy poison. Although, the hiring a cat
suggestion could have been interesting. Where exactly to you hire a
cat anyways? And what’s the going rate? Can we put that on team
budget?
Have poison sprinkled around room. 1
more point to the rat.
Rat dies and starts to reek. 1 point
Unable to find dead rat to remove
smell. 1 more point
Rat 13, World Racer’s 2
I’ll keep you updated
