My parents’ old place had the bat towels and the bat box.

Bats would hang out in our garden eating bugs and such. But they’d sometimes get confused, flop into the house, and get stuck. We live in a third world country, there isn’t some organization we can call to properly care for the bats, but we’re not stupid and we know that handling a wild animal is bad for us and the critter.

So. Old beat up towels. Toss one on the floor next to the crawling bat. It’ll cling to it. Lift the towel from a distance. Gently drop it in the box. Put the box next to a tree. Bat will find the tree and find its way home.

I like this. Beats a poop knife any day.

Awe, and it’s so respectful to the bats, too; it’s sweet to hear.

Bats are babeys

And they keep the dengue fever away.

I’m just finding out now that we had a poop knife…

A snake poop knife, for the stuck snake poop in the snake box.

I have nothing else to say about it.

We had a poop spork for similar purposes involving a lizard cage. It was good for fishing lizard poops out of the water dish.

my youngest brother had a lazy stick. It was a broom handle and a ruler taped together with a couple of chop sticks mixed in to help hold the two together. To avoid getting out of bed, he fashioned this up to turn off the lights in his room. Inspired by Homers broom in the episode of the Simpsons where he gains a ton of weight to go on disability.

This stick did the trick and even could turn the tv on and off.

Twenty years later, my brother is currently on a diet and losing a lot of weight. All the weight is post stick and much later in life, but we have a laugh about it every now and again.

I have a fetch ladle and a coal spoon. My dog lives for fetch but always sets the ball next to my feet. If I’m sitting on the back porch I don’t want to keep bending forward so I have a ladle that’s perfect for scooping up a tennis ball and throwing it. I also have a slotted spoon that I use to grab unburnt coal out of my grill before dumping the ashes. Both of these utensils just hang from my grill.

I have a under bed retrieving stick. My bed has a gap close to the wall, so object sometime fall in. Since the bed is to heavy to be easily moved. I leave a retriving stick. I could upgrade to a hook. But I like the challenge of using a stick.

Face scrubber. I was given a small crocheted dish scrubber - sort of like these - made from very soft tulle. It's too soft to be effective on dishes, but it works perfectly on my face.

We have a pair of tongs for fishing out stones that our youngest son (2) throws down an outside drain.
