Jennifer Garner rents goats to get rid of pests on her property

Jennifer Garner has a very creative solution for getting rid of pests on her property.

She told Conan O'Brien that her house in Los Angeles is on a hill, and down the side of that hill is a ton of old ivy with rats living inside of it.

It was apparently going to be pretty expensive to tear the ivy out of the ground, so Jen decided to find a way to take care of it herself.

"I rented a herd of goats," Garner said. "They eat ivy!"

Yes, you heard right -- Jennifer rented 120 goats to eat the ivy off her property instead of, you know, hiring an exterminator.

It worked! For a while ... The goat herder failed to inform her that ivy grows back over time.

She and husband Ben Affleck now have a hill full of ivy again. Well, we'll definitely give you an A for effort, Jen!

At least it made for a hilarious story. Fans on Twitter were absolutely loving her unbelievable tale -- and so were we.
