    I'd think she was in line for her own private island or something...

    so...does that need to be added to the entrance exam?

    we have a huge mouse problem at work. caught dozens of them last fall. one of my coworkers - and i know he's not this dumb, he's just lazy - was told to set a bunch of traps. so he did. but then he never went back to check on them. and only he knew where they were. so after a couple of mornings hunting down the bodies based on the smell I chewed his ass out, asked why he hadn't been checking on the traps daily. "well no one told me to..." o_O seriously? did you really need to be told that? was also fun when one climbs into an empty filing cabinet drawer. smooth sides, cant get out. also had to chase those guys down based on smell.

    I caught one live too. heard him chewing...cornered him after a couple of unsuccessful attempts and then scooped him up into my garbage can. he then got tied up in the bag, put in a box, taped shut, and thrown in the dumpster.

    i use the little packets of peppermint sawdust. seems to work. cars smell like candy canes.

    thats one good thing about the truck camper - only one spot that they could get in and thats where the sewer plug sticks out. i keep an eye out it just it case

    Morning all

    Back in the 80s I ran a small warehouse in Sandy Eggo. Backed up to a field so we had quite the field mouse problem. Tried all kinds of traps and most were just nasty. Poison bait? They run off, hide and die. A week later...hmm what is that awful smell?

    Sticky traps, you end up with bald scared mice that you have to kill.
    Peanut butter surprise is still the best

    If we had the co2 canister trap I would have tried that.
