The rats are annoying pests and usually only invade when our walnut crop is dropping. Typically I can keep them at bay most of the year. The birds, actually swallows are very useful to us as they hunt mosquitoes by the thousands so I really do not like chasing them out.
The dust is annoying but what do I expect on a farm. The toys clean up fine and even the material cleans up nicely. Sometimes it adds an element of reality to a dio, especially western.
The ships are on the list to have a make over. I plan on taking one down at a time and properly outfitting each one with a crew, rigging, sails and accessories.
