Fireworks, rat poison and eye exam La Paz

I'm sure they all go together somehow...

New eye exam at Soriana. I tipped the doc 100p. Usually free if you buy glasses.

WE are having a plague of mice and I finally found the liquid poison on the Los Planes road at Forrajera El Camaron, across from Eco-Verde Recycling.
In Miraflores, found the purple poison for sale already soaked into kitty-kibble! I soak it into elbow macaroni.

I found a fireworks compound that makes stuff for professional displays, after all the junkyards on the left. After driving through the open gate and seeing the piles of dangerous-looking tarry substances drying on newspaper, the owner came out and opened his modest store.
His prices (and everyone else's) were high, but when I started waving around a 500 peso bill, the prices dropped dramatically.
Sorry...I bought all the cherry bombs, but there are things like a giant homemade roman caNDLe and rockets still.

Get some Coumadin from someone. That's said to be rat poison. :o

And blood thinner for humans.

No longer for me. The VA changed me over to Pradaxa. No more diet restrictions or level testing.
Downside is, if I cut myself, it's even less controllable than Warfarin/Coumadin. Add that to living rural, and in Mexico, and I'm dead before I could get help.
Ohh well.....nothing's perfect.

Plumeria. Just pull off a leaf, put the milky sap on the wound.

Thanks, Jorge. I'll look into this.

I guess the sap is, or is like, latex.

Maybe you should get some of this stuff:

It's similar to super glue, which also works. Really. Google it.

I'm concerned more about the deeper cuts, like arteries.

Thanks.
