What I do to drown out gerbil digging noises... The same thing I have done almost all of my life to be able to sleep peacefully through the night...
run a noisy fan. The droning noise of the loud fan puts me to sleep like riding in a car puts young children to sleep. I have done this for many years, even in the coldest of winter. In the winter though, I set the fan on the floor and turn it so the air blows down the hall or into my closet so it doesn't freeze me or the gerbies. Without it I am one of the lightest sleepers I know, easily awakened by soft noise. And even with it, certain noises still wake me, but I sleep so much better than if I did not have it. Can't guarantee it would work for others though. Jade --- Heather Marie <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > My two girl gerbils are driving me insane!
