Buggies

[moonwise]

Today, I found a little buggie crawling on the wall. I caught him in a glass and named him Fred. (I had a little Beetle, and Beetle was his name; and I called him Alexander and he answered just the same.)



Everybody say "HI FRED!"

So now there is a problem. Little Fred is not all that welcome in the apartment. However, he does not appear to be a biting kind of buggie, and he is growing on me.

As a result, I ask of you all, what should I do with Fred the buggie?

I would put him in the snow, and remind myself that I thought I saw on TV that flies can freeze solid over the winter, thaw out in the spring, and be just fine, so maybe beetles are the same.

We briefly had a mouse in my old duplex, and chased him around with much excitement one day. The shining moment was catching him in the warmer drawer of my griddle (turned off of course), running outside with the thing and opening the drawer to find him gone. Aaugh! I set up peanut butter traps and wondered what I'd do if I ever caught him, but there was never any sign of him after that.

I guess you taught little mousies not to come nosing around your house. Maybe he got scared and left for calmer premises. ^_^
