    Man the Hairy Hunter!!

    Had a few issues with mice at SB Towers recently. Little blighters have demolished a couple of bags of pasta as well as sponge fingers and Tapioca and the like from the understairs larder.
    Anyway....finally got round to purchasing some good old-fashioned mousetraps yesterday and set them all last night to see what could be done. Checked this morning and whaddya know? 3 confirmed kills!!!

      Not a fan of the traps that just capture them alive? Then release them to the wild?

        Nah. Apart from being prohibitively expensive, the little fookers would just find their way back indoors. Got to be cruel to be kind.

          Why does in it not surprise me that you live in a rat-infested hovel?.
          Mice, my arse.

            Mice are one of the downsides from living in large farm houses in the country rather than crappy Barrett Suburbia.

            Personally I just use poison as they take it back to the nest and kill the others at the same time.

              Yes I thought Shaunboy was going to come out the closet and declare the love that dare not speak its name for HAB.
              Always forgive your enemies; nothing annoys them so much.

                You don't release them near your house. Sheesh.

                  Slight snag there is if the nest full of cadavers is where you can smell it but can't reach it.
