Hopefully that will reduce their access... Once in a while, it seems
that something rodent-y (maybe mice, maybe squirrel) is getting in
through the attic, as I hear scratchings and/or sound of debris falling
in the wall of my bedroom, near the ceiling...  It can catch a cat's
attention, too... ;)

Curtains... ;)  We've not had any problems with chocolate munchers ever
since we started storing it all in the 2 (or so) pound plastic nut
containers... Of course, having cats in the house probably also has
minimized their existence besides... ;)

No doubt less expensive a proposition... ;)  We've just opened up for
indoor dining... lunch specials, here we come... (G)
