mice

ok i woke up went down the stairs to get breakfast and just before i went to open the door a mouse ran from under it and then disappeared... it wasn't a huge rat or anything but yeah it startled me.

Any ideas of getting rid of these? Id rather use the most humane method. I've used a glue board before...
 
i've caught one on a glueboard along time ago... I couldnt do it (kill it) because it just was defenseless i felt sad for it... i just watched it squirm, there were also alot of big spiders on it along with some silverfish... it was quite gross site. I had to ask my landlord to dispose of it.

ahhh i might buy a bunch of glueboards again. I think i should try to rid of the other pests too like spiders, and other insects maybe the mice are attracted to them. Glueboards seem to work good for trapping all sorts of critters....
 
Buy the plastic 'Have a Heart' trap. Bait it with peanut butter.
When they get to the end of the trap it tilts and the door closes.

At this point, they are ready to be transported to the home
of your psycho ex g/f for her amusement and pleasure.

Nothing like the thrill of sportsmanlike 'Catch and Release'.
 
I've used these with great success:

Humane. WHAM! Snapped neck, dead.

Conserve something else. The only thing mice are good for is as food for other species and to spread disease.
