Fresh mint at the entry point if you've got any.

Soapy water (laundry discharge?) on the nest if you can find it.

I am logging Scotch broom, today, in the rain.  I am finding trees I thought did not exist.  Just like Christmas. ;D

Scotch broom for christmas trees.  Hummmmmm.  You might have something there.   

When you get a little older and wiser Frank, you'll realize that old people melt in the rain and shouldn't be out in it.  I'm seriously watching rain drops out my front window today.
