I thought in might be fun to here what kind of critters everyone found under their pumpkins. I suppose if you did every thing right, you should not have anything under it.
I'll start.
I had a nice sized toad and a mouse nest, (with one adult mouse which met my shovel) under mine. I put the toad back into the rest of my patch.

IF I have any concave bellies I will find a black widow under there. I bet some sowbugs... and mill fabric. Will know soon.

Mr. P.P. Pumpkineaters wife...........That was pretty disturbing. But if you ever saw her you might understand why he'd want to put her there. Really though, all I found were tunnels, no actual critters.
