Flu, I’ve heard coyotes in the canyons lots of times. It seems like less often recently, though. I’ve also seen deer, rabbits, mice, birds, gophers and a whole food chain worth of wildlife out there. I even heard what I’m pretty sure was a bobcat once.[/quote]

That was just me howling when I was drunk. Actually, the thing that is the most disgusting are these black bugs/beetles (1.5-2 inches, I don’t know what they are). If you step on them, they stink, literally. Make friends with someone that owns a pest control. I regularly get an ant issue, until I removed all the plants bordering the house. (Previously owner got a bright idea in planting trees/shrubs/plants right next to the house. Not only does it wreak havoc on the walls when it comes to watering, can you say bug infestation? Don’t make the same mistake 🙁
