Mouse Hunt

by delliott101 · Mar 10, 2003 · 311 views · · · Journal

I woke up the other night to a scraping sound... figured it was the neighbor or a tree branch against the house, but then I saw the evidence since then...

I got a mouse in the house...

NOW I gotta get rid of it...

UPDATE... March 13, 2003...

This must be one smart mouse. He licks the peanut butter off of the trap without setting it off. Why me?
UPDATE... March 15, 2003...

The mouse has been caught.. popcorn works!

hunkpapapOG 2003 · Mar 10, 2003

yeah, there was a mouse in my room the other night. woke me up, it was all crawling around on the wires near the wall and under my desk. I didn't like that at all. I set some traps, but no luck yet.

hunkpapapOG 2003 · Mar 10, 2003

yeah they are slippery little devils....

rocksupastarFounder · Mar 10, 2003

i got the same problem, dumb mice.. we gotta get some traps, but im thinking more tekki... like ultrasonic wave things, those things you plug into the walls... yea man!

forrestinaOG 2002 · Mar 10, 2003

this is the time they like to come inside cus it's cold. make sure you don't have a lot of boxes i.e. shoe boxes low to the ground because they like to make homes in them.

deanh77Founder · Mar 10, 2003

my room is full of boxes. ughg. what am I gonna do?

whoknowsOG 2003 · Mar 10, 2003

learn to live in peace with your new secret pet

forrestinaOG 2002 · Mar 10, 2003

keep them off the floor!

web-toedchloeOG 2001 · Mar 10, 2003

We still have some poison from the mice in our house, if you're interested in really getting rid of it.

delliott101OG 2002 · Mar 10, 2003

Got some... I don't want to use it since the guy next door has a cat, but I gotta do it... I set it out earlier today...

The cat doesn't come on this side, but just in case the mouse goes there, don't want him all poisoned and the cat eats it...

delliott101OG 2002 · Mar 10, 2003

By the way... I HATE MICE AND INSECTS IN MY HOME!!!!

ok4nowOG 2002 · Mar 11, 2003

is it dead yet?

delliott101OG 2002 · Mar 11, 2003

No... not yet... I'll get some mouse traps, too... but it only comes out at night...

forrestinaOG 2002 · Mar 12, 2003

my dad used to put peanut butter on those snap traps

deanh77Founder · Mar 12, 2003

yeah, we do that. and it works. cause we caught two last night after we set traps in the kitchen.

ok4nowOG 2002 · Mar 12, 2003

yeah, that works great...i had to kick out these two mice living in this apt. i moved into...they were noisy roommates, so they had to go

hunkpapapOG 2003 · Mar 12, 2003

the locos come out at night....

ok4nowOG 2002 · Mar 12, 2003

the freaks come out at night

gollumOG 2003 · Mar 10, 2003

Mice are SOOOOOOOOOO cute....don't hurt it! Catch it, have it neutered and put it in a cage, they make great adorable little pets!

thatdarngirlOG 2002 · Mar 10, 2003

Ben got two mice but instead of feeding them to his snake he named them and made them his pets for a while. Then he fed them to his snake.

magnumOG 2001 · Mar 11, 2003

haha

malibuOG 2001 · Mar 11, 2003

"what did i tell you about becoming attatched to your food?"

thatdarngirlOG 2002 · Mar 11, 2003

uh....don't????

ok4nowOG 2002 · Mar 10, 2003

a couple of monday's ago when we had the blizzard, i woke in the middle of the night thinking someone was walking around in my house...it was actually the howling wind outside

hunkpapapOG 2003 · Mar 11, 2003

ok seriously, i once had to catch mice at a friends house and we used the vacuum cleaner. Oh and if ou use the snap traps don't test them out. Seriously, ouch....

delliott101OG 2002 · Mar 14, 2003

Last night I baited the trap with Velveeta... he took it and the trap is still in place... it's like a bad movie

deanh77Founder · Mar 14, 2003

have you been breeding super-smart mice? Hmm. its like your that guy from Willard. hmm...

delliott101OG 2002 · Mar 14, 2003

Hmmm... yeah... it's nuts! One of the techs at work is telling me to use popcorn.. I'll have to try that...

delliott101OG 2002 · Mar 14, 2003

The mouse is no more

ekuluOG 2002 · Mar 15, 2003

rocksupastarFounder · Mar 17, 2003
