My old reflex was to hand that kind of work to a handyman with his own truck and tools, license or not, because I figured only the big general contractors needed one. Plenty of u

As of late September 2026, the nights here in Riverside are starting to cool, and for years this was the week I restocked.

As of mid-September 2026, here in Riverside, I'm back to lying awake listening for scratching over the ceiling of my old ranch house. For years my answer was a box of bait blocks: toss a few into the attic, a few more along the foundation, and call it handled. Out of sight, out of mind, no traps to empty.
