Default Holes in the yard

OMG when I first read "rug rats" I thought of real RATS and a variety
called rug rats. eeek. But, I now know you meant kids, or children,
and well, don't have any of those right now! No kids, no dog, no cat.

I do, however, have a fig tree that is dropping fruit faster than I
can pick it up off the ground. I am worried that is attracting
something like... real rug rats!

thanks for everyone's input...
