eeek mousetrap

[fishie]

just sitting happily bfing when snap - mousetrap gone off in kitchen. will have to go and look, dp won't be home for another couple of hours. not very squeamish but bleugh, horrors, what shal i do with it?

replace trap with a human one and then you can let it out at the end of the garden????????????

Other than that leave it till DP gets home

i've got to go in there to cook. oh god i can hear some sort of tapping. i do hope its coming from somewhere else..... [fear}

oh PHEW it has not got a mouse in it. that's a different problem.

Looks like a takeaway tonight???
It's more scared of you than you are of him. It's only a ickle mousey wousey

Well I was looking out of my kitchen window the other day,smiling at the birds who come for the seed I leave on the wall and the next thing,a huge rat crawls along and helps itself.....then another.

I have run away to Turkey as I can't deal with it although I willhave to when I return at the ned of the week.

oh that is far far worse than a few mice, do hope you can sort it out easily.

Hmmm,me too!
I can hear (and sometimes see!) them scuttling around the oil tank when I go out.

Is it true that mice carry disease in their wee? We have mice in the house and I am frightened after MIL told me that they could spread serious disease (or she could just be putting the frighteners on me... wouldn't be the first time)

Any advice much appreciated

i've heard this too, weil's disease? lymes? not sure if its true anyway, but they deffo pee everywhere they go, so highly undesirable whether diseased or not.

yes traps are best (except when you are scared to remove them i must toughen up) poison can half kill them and you have to finish them off. our last lot wouldn't go in humane traps either.
