I'm not even sure what I want it to be. I'm leaning towards possum, so that way I don't have to believe it will come in the house, settling only for a garage visit. Either way I lose, since I'm not a big fan of night critters in general.
To be fair, the ants have not thoroughly infested the kitchen and bathrooms yet. They sent millions of scouts for a long weekend or so, but have since disappeared. They might be back when we get to real summer, but for now we have others.
When I was getting ready to go to the gym tonight I went out to the garage to grab some shoes. Amongst the pile of shoes there was a cockroach. It made its way under some shelter before I could smash it with one of his shelter shoes. Out of the corner of my eye I see a spider rushing down to the shoes as well. If you know my at all, you know that I hate/fear spiders. I prefer to kill them so I don't have to worry about them laying eggs in my ear while I sleep, as I'm sure that this is always their secret plan. I was also unable to kill the spider. I spent about two minutes, one per shoe, making sure there was neither a spider nor its egg sac present. Those shoes are not going back in the garage. There are Black Widows out there.
By the way, those little electronic bug repellers that plug into the wall don't work. I should know.

I bought those electronic bug repellers! They don't work. And don't be so sure about the Rat vs. Possum. Possums are kinda scary, have you seen their teeth? Its almost like looking at the mouth of a small crocodile. If I haven't yet, remind me to tell you the story of waking up to a Scorpion biting me.
AHHH, you seriously need to think about relocating even before your move to Oregon. The ghetto I can handle but the critters are something else:P
Dude... Where do you live?
