I got a fucking mouse in my kitchen
Sitting at the table with my daughter and she jumps up on the chair screaming....

the mouse was on the counter by the dog treats... I thought I heard something there.
He CLIMBS up a cord I have plugged in up to the shelves I have, then disappears I guess I have to move the CD player to find the hole.
I have mouse traps so we set them using peanut butter. They are a new kind. Covered so you don't have to see the dead mouse :scared: :scared: .


Well the mouse ran into the mouse trap and came back out....
I guess it's not heavy enough... so I am here alone because my daughter went home and I feel all creepy crawly....


ugh
just something else to deal with


:hi:

9. Maybe you can get
a little havahart trap and put food in it and leave it in the kitchen. And I think they sell some type of scented thingy that smells like a cat that you can leave around to discourage them from coming in. Or take a washcloth to somewhere there is a cat and rub it all over the cat and use that. My (deceased) labrador used to catch them. It was like she was a cat. I don't get them anymore, luckily.

12. I managed to catch the one we had running around here a few months ago.
It was out in the open, so I just grabbed the cheapest plastic container that we wouldn't mind throwing out and grabbed it. Let it loose down by the river, never saw it again.

I named him Magellan. Because he was trying to explore until the natives kicked him out. :P
