I re-make the hill using acme hill regrowing powder.
I put some birdseed on the top, with a massive mouse trap next to it.
The mouse trap goes off, catching me.

In popular cultureWilliam S. Burroughs wrote about the candiru in his 1959 novel Naked Lunch, describing it as "a small eel-like fish or worm about one-quarter inch through and two inches long patronizing certain rivers of ill repute in the Greater Amazon Basin, will dart up your *expletive deleted*, and hold himself there by sharp spines with precisely what motives is not known since no one has stepped forward to observe the candiru's life-cycle in situ."[22] Burroughs also mentioned it in The Yage Letters: "At that time I was stationed at the remote jungle outpost of Candiru, so named from a tiny eel like fish that infests the rivers of that area. This vicious fish introduces itself into the most intimate parts of the human body, maintaining itself there by poisonous barbs while it feeds on the soft membranes".[23]
In the 1992 film, Medicine Man, Dr. Robert Campbell (Sean Connery) warns Dr. Ray Crane (Lorraine Bracco) about the threat of encountering the candiru in the Amazon when swimming without underwear.
In the 1993 movie Gunmen, the protagonist, Dani Servigo (Christopher Lambert), refuses to wade an apparently candiru-infested creek located in a fictional South American country, lest they swim up his penis.
In Season 3 Episode 21 of Grey's Anatomy, an important patient was found with a Candiru fish in his urinary tract.
In Season 1 Episode 9 of The Venture Brothers, Dr. Venture, his sons, and their bodyguard are tied up over the Amazon by archvillain The Monarch, who gleefully describes what "the dreaded candiru" will do to their penises. Dr. Venture calls him on it, claiming it's just a myth.
The candiru is also featured in 1000 Ways to Die #608, "Catch and Decease", which aired on September 14, 2010.
In the movie Anaconda, released in 1997, the character played by Eric Stoltz, mentions his fear of the Candiru. Specifically, he mentions the catfish's ability to climb up a human's urethra.
