Got Mice? - In search of a better mouse trap

Daughter is really motivated by the eco, natural, authentic, gentler,
and similar ideas.

As example, years ago while in college she had a live trap to catch
mice and would get someone to take the trap out to release Mr. mouse
back into the wild.

Famous story was she caught one and could not find anyone to let it go
for a couple days, so she fed it while it was in the little live box
until she got help. Of course I was giving her advice on bucket of
water solution at the time.

hmmmmmmm Dad ain't into catch and release for illegal aliens,
criminals or mice. But, she was .

Baby daughter was born several months ago and daughter found
'evidence' of lots of Mr. mouse's friends after returning from
visiting us and other family for couple weeks. She has husband
setting 4 traps at a time with almond paste and reports she caught two
mice in one trap. The lethal kind of course that snaps their little
heads with that spring.

Reality of mouse droppings on her bed and in baby's play sleeper
changed that old ideal. She is on war footing washing and scrubbing
every possible place her guests might have traveled and has a big
stock of new traps as she does not want trap in house once it has
apprehended, tried, convicted and executed a little critter.



With that.
