Which uninvited house guest would have you shouting for someone else to deal with it?

It's always there first thing in the morning, just when you need a wee. Do you reach for the glass and postcard, or shout for help?

You spot droppings by the toaster and suddenly the kitchen feels like a horror film. Some people find them sweet. Most people climb onto a chair.

It won't go out the open window, it just goes for your face. Cue lots of flapping with a tea towel.

It flies into your face just as you turn the light off. You know it can't hurt you, but you won't sleep a wink.

Nobody knows how they get in, but that silvery trail on the lino says it all. Treading on one at midnight is something you never forget.
