Ratón wasn't welcomed and I wanted him out. Immediately! So, instead of killing him I sweeped him out of the house. (So Costa Rican) But, NaNa had other plans for him. Poor guy. He didn't stand a chance. I tried to set him free...really I did. HA!
After Ratón left this world to be in the next, a few more of his cousins decide to come out. All these new introductions seem to come about when the housekeeper, Cynthia did her first weekly cleaning (she comes once a week). Cynthia speaks no English. Nada. But boy can she clean! She brought the life back into this house! I think when Cynthia cleaned outside the house, she must have put down some type of insecticide around the house because every National Geographic creature has come out!!!
Day 7-8 - I discovered BAYGON will help control the hormiga (ant) population. NOTE:CR doesn't have FDA regulations. Enough said. HA!:
Day 9 - BAYGON kills Geckos? Yep, geckos...I'm definitely in Costa Rica. I can take my binoculars out, sit outside on the porch and bird watch. Amazing.
I also brought some art supplies with me so I could capture my Costa Rica experience in Charcoal and Conté:
