I'm tearing my hair out with the mice. I just want them gone. It's a huge amount of money though.

ouch.

erm, stating the blardy obvious, like, isn't anyone else going to share the cost?

gigglewitch · 08/02/2009 02:37

coooo--eeeee????

DWP?

don't say I killed your thread as well?

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 08/02/2009 02:39

It sounds like all the terrace is ours, no we have a tiny portion.

It's old and full of holes and a delight for ice.

I could pay 100 for just ours but it's not going to sort the problem (I've already done this twice this year)

erm, get a cat

gigglewitch · 08/02/2009 02:41

bugger that - open a cats home

TheDevilWearsPrimark · 08/02/2009 02:43

foe Mice, not ice.

No, one neighbour has old fashioned traps (Which are not working) and don't want to pay, the others are never home and one neighbour is very elderly and quite poorly, don't want to hassle her for anything.

I would love cats.

If we didn't live in London I'd have a boy and girl cat and breed away. AAAAAAAW

ooohh dear. and yes, i gathered that you had small rodents not bits of frozen water running round. unfortunately the rodents run faster i believe.

suppose you dont have a nice ratchaser friend of any variety?
(considering both man-with-trap and four-legged sort)

gigglewitch · 08/02/2009 02:46

ahh, the joys of the big smoke.

looks like they are all yours to get evicted then....

I have to say I'd want guarantees that they were well and truly never-to-return evicted, tho

am bonkers too - beyond the scope of here but lets just say we are all a tad sensitive
I think if we were normal, sane and unworried we would be safely tucked up in bed long since?

time for some zzz's

Take a look at www.pestwarehouse.co.uk
They sell all you need to do your own pest control. i saved a fortune when mice decided to move in! within 2 week all the mice were dead. They gave great advice which really helped me

vickyo · 11/07/2009 20:18
