A mouse just crawled out from under the sofa I am sitting in with my baby... I screamed on cue. I have seen the mouse before. I have and seen a mouse crawl out from under my units in the kitchen. My house is pretty spotless and I keep any pantry foods like rice, flour and cereal in sealed containers. However our house is on a London terrace, it is Victorian and has a plentitude of gaps between the floorboards and other nice places for mice to enter and exit. I had a pest control man here last time and he put traps down but they were ignored and it was expensive and annoying. I can’t get a cat because I had one but gave it to my mother when I had my little boy who I predicted rightly to be a tail puller and prodder. So, AIBU to just live with the odd visit by mice? I have so much on my plate at the moment and things are stressful so the last thing i need is to get upset about this.
