Mosquitoes are among the winners
We are poisoning their predators; I suppose someone thought it a good idea.
And our wonderful government
…here in the UK which is on a huge anti environment drive at the moment ratified a number of pesticides which are harmful to bees several years ago.
Since we left the EU the die hard Brexiteers and anti-Europeans are hellbent on eliminating EU legislation, and if that includes reducing environmental standards, so be it.

The joke about "taking back
The joke about "taking back control" is that is what Corbyn and McDonnell actually really wanted, so Labour could renationalise water, rail and power. The Brexiteers wanted to weaken any controls so that their friends could pillage us and the environment more easily. Sunak or Starmer, both will oblige. Carve the animal out from the herd...
Away from the politics and back to Dormeeces
Anyone interested in the Gliss Gliss species should have a look at youtube, Martijn Doorlaand channel, he is renovating a two building remote Italian farmhouse and in the last episode points the inside dry stone walls much to the dismay of the dormice living in the walls! I know they are bigger than the Hazel dormouse but boy do they make a racket clumping around in the walls. He also suffers a flea infestation due to the cutey little critters!
They are squirrel sized
Aggressive, with a nasty bite and like their cousins, grey squirrels they can do damage in properties. A stone marten usually sorts them out, better than a cat.

An interesting trip
Down memory lane. I suspect Cathy is in her midlife crisis.
So Cathy got
put off quiches for a while after seeing them made, I could certainly understand that, I had a temporary job for a company that produced savoury snacks including Cornish Pasties, At one point i had to go on the factory floor and walked past the CP production line, The pasty cover was of a flaky nature so not really a proper Cornish Pasty that alone would not have bothered me, It was more the blob of brown goop the machine dropped down that put me off them , The company now no longer trades,Having seen their attempt at a CP i can't sat i'm suprised

We lived In A House
With possums residing in the ceiling. They were randy little buggers and used to make a lot of noise when fornicating. It made us giggle because you could always tell what they were up to when they stopped running around.
I remember living in an apartment
and the young couple living above me had the same floor plan. And unfortunately, their bed would squeak loudly when they were having "fun". I met them in the lobby one day and mentioned I heard their bed squeak at night and they both turned red. It was hilarious to me. They had a new bed within a couple of days, lol.
I have to agree with Cathy about the lack of birds and insects
I remember when I first started riding a motorcycle back in the 1980s. I would go out for a day's ride and come back covered in insects splattered all over my helmet, jacket and motorcycle. Now when I return, there are only 2 or 3 splats on everything. Maybe this isn't very scientific, but it is something I have noted. There are also far fewer songbirds, and I miss them.
