Humane small animal trap, green vegetables advised for iguana About: Adair County, KY, woman needs help To ColumbiaMagazine.com: I contacted my son in Florida who does rescue for reptiles. His advice is to use a humane small animal trap. Bait it with Hibiscus or green vegetables like lettuce or peas. Do NOT try to pick the Iguana up. While they can bite it's the tail that you need to be careful of. Even a small Iguana can leave a very nasty welt with a well aimed flick of his tail. I have both a trap and the hibiscus if you need them - I don't however want the lizard. s/Barbara Armitage 2009-08-28 21:36:15 | Comments | Printable version

From the Tractor Seat: Advice on finding lost iguana About: Adair County, KY, woman needs help To ColumbiaMagazine.com: Tell the woman to go out on the porch, sit in a rocking chair, opena beer, make noises like an iguana and drink the beer. If that doesn't work, she should drink more beers until the iguana shows its ugly head! Seriously, now: Iguanas love hibiscus blooms and they are probably just as fond of Rose of Sharon blooms which are in the same family. If she has access to some blossoms, tell her to put a small pile inside the cage and maybe one or two at the entrance to the cage. Might work. s/Charles Marshburn 2009-08-28 15:07:26 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback

Thanks, emergency responders, for help find missing child To ColumbiaMagazine.com: Just wanted to say "Thank You" to everyone at the Columbia Police Department, Adair County SAR, Emergency Management, Adair County 911, family, friends, and anyone else that assisted with the location of our son who slipped off to a friend's after getting off the school bus on Thursday afternoon. As parents, we immediately suspected that he was at friend or neighbor's home, but we were unable to locate him. Calling everyone we knew turned up nothing. After a nearly 2 hour search and endless phone calls, knocks on doors, and tears of dismay, he was found safe and sound. The prompt and attentive response from our city and county agencies has reaffirmed my longheld belief in the capabilities of our emergency responders. Thanks again. s/Eric and Charlotte Hare 2009-08-28 03:22:13 | Comments | Printable version | See topic Letters and Reader Feedback
