yesterday was the start of my yearly battle with them. I have a little rig I sling over my shoulder and take with me up the ladder an onto the roof. It consists of 5 quarts of Terminate, 1 can of CRC brake clean, a turkey baster full of Sevin dust and a caulking gun.

I wish there was something that would deter them.
