My mum has mice, again!! Had mice in her kitchen approx 6 months ago, and an infestation of fleas about 10 months ago. Her house is impossible to clean properly due to the huge amounts of shit stuff she has. She just never throws anything out!
She is in her late 70s now and bloody impossible to help because she becomes so nasty and defensive when you try and get rid of anything.
She is going away on holiday next week with my brother and cos the mice appeared again I said that while she is away I am going to sort out the kitchen, get rid of some stuff and give it a good clean up. Funnily enough she wasnt in the least bit grateful!! She said I had no right to suggest that her house was unclean (it is!) and I should think about cleaning up my own house before I start on her!
I pointed out that there are 5 people living in my house, and we still have access to all our bedrooms, unlike my mum who is one potty old lady on her own who can only use one of the bedrooms in her four bed house cos the others are crammed full of useless bloody crap
She has just rung me to say she has tripped the mousetrap I set by accident because she forgot it was there, will have to go up and reset it. Is there anyone out there going through anything similar, please!!!!!!!!!!
