Unique Cockroach Catcher

Asked Katrinka why the scales was on the porch over to the side. She only said one word. "Cockroach."

We don't kill them though sometimes inflict unintended harm in catching. So I asked, "Oh, you used the scales to catch a cockroach?"

"Well, one hid in the scales and I took it outside. So I guess the answer is yes."

"Excellent."
