Hi luvitsa and welcome on board!

I'm the Managing Director of Quest Bulgaria Magazine (just Google it!), and wondered if you would be interested in writing a series of articles for us? Of course we will credit all photographs, test and place a link to your web site in each article.

If this is of interest, please send me a message ... or even post here!

Best Regards
Chris

Now perhaps you guys could help me please We have somthing in our loft it scratches the wood it runs very fast and when it sits it sounds very heavy I explained this to my neighbour and she said it is a 'Yorkiebear' any idea what this is

It is trying to move into our living room and quite frankly I am half expecting it to be there on the settee watching tv when we go back and have the family settle in too Oddy

If it's in the loft only, then my guess would be squirrels. Also, you should check for discarded nut casings to confirm this! Also, watch out, squirrels have to constantly chew things and often take to chewing electric cabling.

This is quite a fire risk and most household insurance won't cover against damage by rodents!

If you can hear this in other places that the loft (between downstairs and upstairs, in the cavity walls, etc.), then I would suspect rats or mice. You should be able to get some rat poison at most chemist or hardware shops for this.

Squirrels are another matter, once they've found a way into the house, it's difficult to get rid of them, they'll keep coming back and bringing their mates to the party!

Cheers
Chris

Great that all we need - expect we will have a house full of them when we get back next year. Hope my neighbour remember to go in with his trap.

Thanks for replies guys appreciate it.
