Only problem is, I haven't seen evidence you've been able to fight off and kill thr salamanders yet... just the mice. The salamander might be a bit much for you.
Again, picturing jurassic Park, when you think they're cute until they spit venom and blind/paralyze you....
I wish I had that kind of "insulation" right now... it's windy and dropping to -20°C overnight. Colder than a witch's tit.
