Condolences for all that have lost ferrets recently, and I would like to thank everyone that sent me cards and emails on the loss of my Gizmo, they meant so much. I have a baby ferret 8 mo. old who insists on hiding her food. I know they do this as my Mitzi had done this when she was younger. My problem is, that i am having to deal with massive amounts of those little sugar ants because there has been so much rain here lately they are trying to find shelter. I pick up her food as much as I can find that she has hid. I don't want to spray for ants as I know this is not good on their respitory systems. I have had this problem in the past, but never this bad. Is there something natural I can use to get rid of them that won't hurt the ferrets, they sleep and play in this room. Thank You, Lynn Barker with the furry four with Gizmo at the rainbow bridge [Posted in FML issue 3902]
