Is God sending the plagues on my house, or just playing a cruel prank?

In the last 5 days:

• 5 wasps INSIDE the house (all dead now)
• a mouse in the garage (MIA)
• an approximately 2 ft. long snake (despite Nick being armed with a shovel, it evaded him by hiding behind our siding)

You'd think the snake would eat the mouse, but it must be doing a crummy job or something.  Now I can't even put up a pool for Ella in the back yard for fear of it chasing us off!
