Not to frighten you or anything, but I lost a 240 pounder and a 340 pounder
yesterday, both to mice!
The pumpkins seemed fine til I turned them over.
Both had nests in the depressed center under the pumpkins.
One still had the mice.
The wife freaked out after that.:)
It seems they tunnel in under the pumpkin, find a place that gives them room
to build a nest, then just lay back and chew on the pumpkins to their
heart's content.
Can you believe it?
A giant brought down by a damn mouse!:)
