Try putting out a crab box. Maybe put some bottles of Zataran's Crab Boil around on the floor to steer them in the right direction.

BTW Wellgrrl to funny about the "big pimpin'".

I could send you my cat. Abbygail would have them outed in no time!!!!

Hahahaha...

I think that's the nicest I've ever meant that phrase- I really do hope you get them back...

any tips would help...
assuming (ut-oh (_|_) the crab is a male, get a female crab, fluff her up, and send it off!

If it was my house I'd know where they were...as I have failed to convince my dogs of the joy of vegetarianism!!! Hope you fare better

Hmmm, I had some crabs once, the Nurses didn't really have a sense of humor about it though...

You know you may be able to scare them back home by sprinkling some Old Bay seasoning around!!!!

Look for little bubbles coming up from your floor or carpet, dig a large area around where the bubbles are coming from. The crabs should be somewhere in that pile you just dug up... Oh wait a minute, I was thinking of catching clams on a beach... My bad.. Maybe you could just "Noodle" for them in the toilet??

oh my.....
I shouldn't have read all these posts while at work - laughing my head off picture little crabbies running around (umm do crabs run?)
and the reason I shouldn't have, is because the others are giving me "what the..." looks.
they know there's nothing funny about working here.
oh well - too bad.

hope you find them! (I would never be taking my shoes off again - ow)

Yeah! I'm cheering for the crabs now! Go crabs, Run, or crawl, or creep along, what ever you do, just don't look back, find the nearest lake or pond and be free!!!
