    I don't want to incourage them to get up there. Chester thought he was running for his life. He usually doesn't get up there.

    I think I fixed it so the monsters can't turn the gas on. I found an old piece of thick cardboard. I cut small stips and they fit great behind the knobs. The knobs won't go down or turn so the gas won't come on. They are so small, the kits probably won't notice them. All I need to do is pull them out when I need to use the stove and put them back again.

    I'll also keep extra pans sitting on the burners to discourage them from any monkey shines. They can't reach the cardboards from the floor and if they try from the top, falling pans will frighten them. There is a tiny rim along the top of the stove so hopefully, that will keep the monkeys from seeing the cardboad.

    I feel lots better. I didn't let them watch me put the cardboard in to keep them from wanting to investigate.

    Oh my God... How scary! And how lucky that you caught on before it was too late.

    Ingenious solution you came up with, too, MoFF.

    Well done!
