I always intend dividing some clumps, too, but never seem to get round to doing that (must try harder :biggrin:). I imagine now is the time to be doing so, if I’m going to do it.

    Rat problem

    Think one of the biggest draws to rats is BBQs, especially 'chilled out' neighbours, not tiding up, or leaving the tidying until morning after a jolly good BBQ.

    House Martins, Swallows & Swifts
