In the Arizona desert we keep pack rats out of our cars using solar lights. My mom fastened a couple of light strings to a board and she parks her car over the board. It lights up at night - no pack rats.

I hope you guys do another updated “Day In Our Life” type of video someday. I’m curious if your day to day life or habits have changed now that you’re not moving around and you’re landowners. I’ve been following your journey closely for a few years now and I have to say Elsa is one of my biggest inspirations. ❤️ Thank you guys for sharing your lives with the world.

[@breeharris2963]

Same! Also i love seeing what you guys eat in a day too because I need meal inspo

[@patriciam4123]

Absolutely and also homesteading. Can't wait! ✌️💛

[@carrolmoxham2602]

I put my car “to sleep” every night after pack rats ate thru my gas line. This is how I did it: placed panty hose filled with mothballs put them on top of tires and in the engine. Next I had a bucket that I placed cheap solar lights in during the day. At dusk I placed the lights in engine, on the ground under the car. Also left hood open slightly. Sounds like a lot of work but really wasn’t. Saved my engine, wiring, and gasline. Never had pack rats or mice in my car again!!

[@ravenmasque7156]

When I lived on the farm we used mothballs for snakes and not sure if it really works but the old farmers used human hair clipping in the garden for critters and animals. My neighbor even had a deal with the local hair salon and they swept up after hair cuts and saved it for his garden. He would bring them fresh produce when he would pick the hair up.

[@melsparkles]

@@ravenmasque7156 can I ask how you used the mothballs and hair cuttings? I have been getting snakes in my shed and would love to move them on naturally.

[@ravenmasque7156]

@@melsparkles I would put them in knee high panty hose and hang them around in the barn and well house, but under the home, our animals can’t get to so we would scatter them around some would put them under upside down pottery to protect their cats. The hair cuttings would just be sprinkled in the garden, you have to do it often because it decomposes fast.. (I will say, we had a black racer (non venomous) that lived in our attic. We left him because he didn’t bother our animals, kept the mice at bay in the home. At lot of people think that is weird, but if you live on many acres and you or any surrounding farms did harvest or even mow for hay, the field mice moved in.) THE BEST THING I EVER HAD… we put fake toy snakes on our porch and it kept birds from nesting and pooping on everything. (I was brought up city girl and beautiful ole’ country farmers taught me their ways. Many swear by soap (like zest bars for strong scent) on a string around garden for deer, tin cake pans hanging near gardens for birds especially when they put their seeds out. Drier sheets under cabinets around pipes to keep mice away, but those have to be replaced often, ziplock bags nailed up that had a circle drawn on it with a sharpie, with a penny inside filled with water to help control flies. But be careful at placement sun rays will act as a magnifying glass..fire..And the oddest one I actually had to look up and it does work, bayer aspirin is not just for our aches and pain, it is great in your garden. An old farmer who sadly passed now laughed when I asked him if he was crazy when giving him garden water with aspirin. he said they get headaches too, his lovely wife explained it was something about the acidity.)

[@melsparkles]

Elsa, I moved to Colorado from the East coast. I was fine wearing contacts on the East coast. But, the lower levels of humidity, along with the dust in the air made it impossible for me to keep mine in for more than a few hours. All the activities I use to do on the coast, mountain bike, hike, ski, I could no longer do in Colorado. I finally got lasik eye surgery. I swore I would never have surgery on a "healthy organ" but I just couldn't take it. My glasses bouncing all over my face, while on my bike, motorcycle, skiing, always fogging up in the winter. ANYWAY, I have an amazing surgeon, located in Denver, if you ever decide to go that route. He is not cheap, but he's the guy the doctors go to when they want eye surgery! It was life changing for me, and I wish I would have done it sooner. I think it has been almost 2 decades and I have never regretted it or had a minutes trouble. I am just now at 56, starting to need glasses to drive at night, and readers for the really tiny print.

[@ElsaRhae]

Hey! I would love to learn more about your experience!! Could you send me an email? [e-mail] 🤍

[@Tata5555555555]

Yes if eligible get lasik it’s worth it. Upfront cost but long term investment!

[@raededmon2581]

I concur with Denise Smith's comment regarding corrective eye surgery. Fellow Missourian here, but like to travel to your current locale. The lack of humidity out west can be miserable on the eyeballs. I was very near-sighted with severe astigmatism and corrective surgery was miraculous when at 35 when they could no longer match my contact prescription to my glasses prescription. You're at a good age to do this, because your eyes have matured (mother worked many years for very good ophthalmologists, so this is not a random statement) and the advances in technology are amazing. If you go this route, you'll probably start to need readers into your later 40s and early 50s, but it is worth it. Particularly if you're working on a computer for hours at a time. As someone who would nearly pass out when they tried to dilate my eyes during exams, I still made it through and never regretted it. It was amazing to be without glasses for the first time since age eight. In the meantime, try Similasan Complete eye drops. Homeopathic and they work. Happy Fall Solstice!

[@denisesmith209]

@@raededmon2581 , it was the first time, since I was ten, that I no longer needed glasses. And you are correct, about readers. I am almost 56 and just started to need them for the really tiny print. And I need glasses for driving at night, mainly to be able to read street signs. But honestly, most of my friends, who didn’t have surgery are in the same place. I just wish I had done it a decade earlier. But I was too chicken😱😁

[@marklockwood7592]

I find that moth balls work very well keeping rats out of engine compartments. Take a small plastic container, punch some holes in it and fill it with moth balls. Use wire ties or wire to secure it in the engine compartment. The moth balls generally last two to four weeks depending on the temperature. Also pick up some aluminum tape and wrap the wires the rats like to eat with it. Make a kit with wire, soldering iron, solder, wire cutter, electrical tape, etc. to repair your wiring the next time this happens. Rats also like vacuum hoses.

[@erikscott5709]

Ever have any luck with hot pepper infused "mouse tape"? I've used "hot foot" to good effect around the barn, which is more or less pepper spray and petroleum jelly, but I imagine it's hard on insulation and rubber hoses.

As my herpatologist coworkers would say, the first rule of snake safety is never handle a snake! These are people with specialized training, who spend the majority of their time in the field. Barron is going to get bitten.

[@cathywhitmore7958]

My grandparent, my mother and I lived on the prairie in Goshen Hole Wyoming which had me rattlesnakes than any place. You don't need to be a trained professional to deal with them. Just live with them and you learn to adapt. Barron removed the snake off the road which was an excellent move. People run over them and CDC as n get a flat when the snake bites the tire. The snake's fangs have injected venom in many mechanics and humans when trying to change a flat. Good job and good thinking.

[@cathywhitmore7958]

CORRECTION: The tire can go flat when the snake bites it. My grandparents homestead for decades and dealt with rattlers every week. I lived on that farm and watched them kill rattlers all the time with a shovel. Then you bury the head which still has venom in the fangs

[@cathywhitmore7958]

When the snake becomes a threat or a menace, you take care of it with care and respect. Millions of people live in snake country and know how to handle them when the need arises. I am sure that none of you and your professional coworkers have never been bitten. Danger exists and risks with dealing with it but wisdom is required. Still say to Barron, good thinking and good job handling the risk. Could have been his flat tire that he ran his hand around it to see if it was a nail. But thank God it wasn't
