Brunch

Not much of an update. Just a dead turtle on the beach and the creepy red-eyed vultures enjoying their meal.

By crickey, mate!

Roit! By crickey! Today our loyal friend and caretaker, João Paulo, found a "caninanas" (or Rat Snake, unless I'm mistaken) wondering about on our front porch. The bloke from Ceará, Brazil had the cahones to grab it by hand just as a famous wildlife expert would have (non-venemous according to João Paulo, though it does bite). We set the fellow free a good distance away shortly after the photos were taken.

Butox Roach Massacre

No, not the anti-wrinkle injection product known as botox, but the poisonous antipest product known in Brazil as butox. I gave my dogs a much needed bath last Sunday using this very product. Caution must be taken so as to not apply too much in a bucket of water. It's some pretty strong stuff, if the smell is anything to go by (and the resulting massacre).

Anyway, my dogs are just fine (and clean), a slew of roaches, on the other hand... not so much. I poured whatever was left in the bucket of butox in our laundry room faucet drain. About 30 minutes time lead to an unexpected, but very amusing (and perhaps gross) result:

Butox - Not to be confused with botox! No, then it'd known as the miracle pro-wrinkle product.

Caution: Posion
Poison indeed. Wouldn't want to inject this stuff into your face!
