Just lucky I guess. I truly haven't, which does surprise me given that data. That said, I'm also genuinely terrified of them, so maybe it's an unconscious blindness. We used to have them in my farm in Maine as a kid. Hated the way they chewed through everything. Made me feel like there was no safe place!

I live in the 'burbs currently but am in regularly (used to be in every day until the kids came along). I've only been to NYC half a dozen times in my life and managed to see at least 3 every trip, usually in the subways or at the train station. Frankly, I'm feeling a bit lucky right now I have been able to avoid them. Those monsters creep me out 😂

Sounds delightful. Glad I haven't run into any yet!
