I have some that was used as a filler on a wall. Sand paper would make a mess. There must be a soluable substance that would allow it to smooth after drying?

I have an epidemic of outdoor rats and mice under my animal cages. I'd need thousands of traps. I hate cats. electronic devices don't work outdoors. Poison keeps on killing other species, but that's what I use. Snakes eat my birds. I kill them.
Any more suggestions?

I recently turned off my pilot light for my furnace, thinking that because it was summer I wouldn't need it. Then, the next day, my air conditioning quit working. Are the two things related?

I live in a 100 year old heritage house that was fully restored to its original condition 4 years ago. Two years ago I acquired a Border Collie, who did a lot of damage when he was a pup. Nothing vicious, just his nails gouging the cabinets and floors - doesn't help to cut them, but he's okay now anyhow. I powerwashed the outside last year and blew some of the paint off the trim, and there's minimal painting needing to be done inside.
Its not a hovel, but I'm sort of a perfectionist, so would like everything to be back the way it was when I moved in, but I know I will sell in a couple of years or so, should I have everything done then?
