Death Toll

Okay...I have been in an all out battle for quite some time. The death toll just got a bit higher. Unfortunately this war doesn't seem to be ending.

MICE...6 down...how many more? I have killed, yes, killed 6 mice in the last two months in my house. I hate killing, them, as they are so cute...but even worse is seeing a mouse in your house.

I scream like I am being murdered when I see a live mouse lurking in a corner of the room. In all my home-ownership experiences...this is the one that might push me over.

Here's the question...how long do I keep the traps set before I win the war?

do you need to borrow a cat for a bit?

OH no....6. SIX??? It's obvious. You have to move.

Or set up a college fund for the orphaned mice.

Are you sure they are mice, or could they just be cockroaches in disguise? Beware, war can be dangerous. And things aren't always what they seem...

I went on terror and killed a bunch of racoons in my neighborhood after they attached my dog. Not very wise now that I look back on it.

Sam decapitated the one in our house to send a message to the others... lets just say, we haven't seen another one since. I also can't ever use that knife again.
