Be aware that if your mouse problem gets to the point you ever see one, rest assured there are many more roaming in your walls. In other, get a professional up in yo shizz.
Given how I feel this morning at work, I should've killed the b*stard. In other news, turns out they're doing construction right next to my house, so I'm thinking they probably dug up a bunch of mice, hence the problem. I can't keep catching mice for fun, so I'm thinking of a way to make sure I don't get anymore. If it comes down to rat poison in the garden, should I worry about my dog eating the stuff?
This thread is funny . My dad and I once (when I was like 8 years old) caught a mouse in one of these "don't kill" mouse traps, then we drove a few miles away to drop it off in the forest so it would not come back. Car got stuck in the mud in heavy rain and we had to walk to a farm a mile away and ask the farmer to tow our car out. One of the saddest conversations I have ever had was with a great aunt of mine who was about 90 or so, and living alone. I went to visit her (she lived more than 100 miles away), and she told me that she had had a mouse in her apartment for a few days...and was so happy because she felt less alone. Anyway, Mathloom, nice of you not to kill the mouse.
Do not put poison where dogs or anything you don't want killed can get to. Glue traps and/or mouse traps with a little dab of peanut butter will do the trick. You need to try and seal the house up with caulk or foam to keep them from coming in. Mice can squeeze through some very small cracks.
Hmm. Well, use rat poison (warfarin) only as a last resort. I've used this before in the Caribbeans and when the mouse finally dies, it will most likely die in the middle of the room somewhere and it would have bled to death. So, when you find it dead, it will be in a pool of its own blood. First, it will make things messy to clean up. Second, that's just a cruel way to kill something.
Question: Can the mouse sing? <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/v/uOwhrCkMiKA?fs=1&hl=en_US"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/v/uOwhrCkMiKA?fs=1&hl=en_US" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object>
