Months ago when we discovered that our jungle mice will come into the house and eat just about anything, we started storing all fruits and vegetables in the refrigerator. Yes, even potatoes and bananas, things that you wouldn't ever think to put in the fridge, have to be sealed away from the stealthy rodents. We had continued to keep our garlic out on a shelf since we had never had any problems with the mice fancying a munch on that. Until this morning. We woke up to find that something had nibbled into a head of garlic. And then when I reached for the honey, I was horrified to find that our honey bear had been violated! I can only assume that the mouse had the manners to remove the bear's nose to spare it the misery of its pungent garlic breath as it then went at our poor bear's left ear.
