We took everything out, cleaned it, and have moved back in. We have taken all food out of the house except the canned goods, so hopefully the mice will leave. We will bring the food back when we finish the addition. Until then, we eat and cook at my parent's house.
I got a full time job in western NC, so we will be leaving soon. I'm sad to have to leave my tiny house. So sad. Hopefully I can finished the exterior plaster before I leave in two weeks! I will post pictures here when I finish...
Also, I have a correction: the butterflies on our Joe Pye Weed were not Spicebush... I didn't know that the female Eastern Tigers are dark in color! Which makes me wonder.... why all the males? Was it the rain? I have heard that temperature can determine sex in some species, before the eggs hatch.
