Enough is enough!
People think that Singapore's a safe country to live in. I hate to say that it's not. When you have to dread taking the elevator up to your house level; walk cautiously along a narrow, danger-filled corridor; open the iron gate while having to be absolutely vigilant of any suspicious movements; finally surviving the ordeal and yet still not being to let your guard down in the comforts of your home - that sucks. Big time.I've thought long and hard about taking action, and finally, I found a feasible solution to my long withstanding problem. And after hearing about Godpa & Abby's success story of nabbing four lizards in their home, I decided it was time to set the traps.
Unlike cockroaches, lizards seem to be a lot more savvy, so the first strike is the most important. My plan is to wipe out as many of them as possible tonight before news gets to the rest of the clan and they learn to manoeuver their way around the traps. Wish me luck!
Step 1: Get your resources. Cardboard, scissors, very sticky tape.
Step 2: Cut cardboard into thin strips (thick enough for chosen sticky tape).
Step 3: Place sticky tape on cardboard.
Step 4: Use alternative tapes to test the different levels of stickiness.
Step 5: Place the bait. (In this instance, we're using rice because Godpa says the smell attracts the pests.)
Step 6: Summon the worker.
Step 7: And now we wait.
