Someone needs to start a cat infestation. My garage used to be like this. Then I opened a window, so that the neighborhood cats could enter.

No mice after just a couple of months.

I am not even joking, the situation in this trench seems serious and cats are brutal hunters.

Cats don't hang around anywhere near fireworks, let alone artillery barrages. Good luck keeping them there.

This is the obvious answer.

There are many cats kept in the Ukrainian dugouts. However, it seems that mice have incredibly proliferated by feeding on the Ruscist corpses left out in the open. Cats are physically unable to consume them all at once.

No mice no birds

Corpse rats, nice. From all the ditch meat russia left to rot where they were shot, for the last two months. Wondered when we were going to see the vermin reaction from that many corpses rotting up the countryside.

Nice work Russia, looks like you're now the 3rd best army in Ukraine after them and the rats.

FYI, mice and rats are different animals. These are mice.

I wonder if mice will generally eat corpses if there's other sources of food available. They're herbivores, but they're not obligate herbivores and can eat pretty much anything, so it's not impossible at least. It being winter, maybe a little Russian snacc might be tempting even for mice?

Corpse Mice, ok. ok.

DEPLOY THE STRATEGIC CAT SQUAD DELTA!

They need one of them bucket traps.

[–] interolivary@beehaw.org 5 points 2 years ago

OK that's more mice than I was expecting

[–] Alchemy@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

Yoooo that is a lot of mice.

[–] SupraMario@lemmy.world 3 points 2 years ago

Time to send bait blocks over there by the ton.
