 Re: Mouse traps
I was once working in a house and came across a mouse trapped in a mouse trap only by his tail. He had this sad look on his face like his was pleading for help. So I took him outside and freed him. He was so cute.

 Re: Mouse traps
I generally don't believe in killing, but mice (and carpenter ants) are allowed to live anywhere but where I do. With the spread of hantavirus, the health risks of house mice are too high. As to the methods - - the classic cheap snappers are the way to go in my experience - - they're the most effective and unless the mouse is very unlucky, it doesn't suffer. (Peanut butter works much better than the cliche cheese bait.)  However, if you want to go the full Born Free route, the excellent Havahart traps allow you to release them alive (far) away from your house.  BTW, I just saw a disturbingly strange new design for a mousetrap this past week - - the Nooski - - which slips a little rubber noose around the mouse's neck (humanely according to the company).

 Re: Mouse traps
Update: Have had the mouse traps in place for 5 days now. No mice, and no sightings of any. Maybe I scared it away?

Even mice get fed up with the feminist routine.  It's so odd to hear that word anymore - - it's so old fashioned. I've had Libs blocked for a couple years now because she was the worst kind of self-righteous troll, but I would never have thought of her as particularily "feminist". However, since it's Algren speaking (in a mouse trap thread, no less) I have no difficulty understanding where the problem actually lies.

 Re: Mouse traps
I heard that mice lay their eggs under your skin. Maybe the mouse has done her job and you will get a surprise in some weeks.
