POCKET GUIDE TO THE HUMANE CONTROL OF WILDLIFE IN CITIES & TOWNS, c,8.5,pl edited by Guy R. Hodge (Falcon Press: $6.95, illustrated). Although most Americans describe themselves as environmentalists who want to live in harmony with nature, they don’t necessarily mean in the same house. Hodge’s concise text discusses the behavior, legal status and potential health threats of the most common animal pests (deer, coyotes, bats, mice, rabbits, beavers et al .) and offers safe, humane tips for removing them and preventing their return. This handy guide would be even more useful if it included ways to dislodge visiting relatives.
