Just a little update on our mouse situation:
He’s still there. Tearing it up in our storage unit.
We’ve now set seven traps. All of which claim “guaranteed success”. Yet so far the only thing the traps have successfully caught is the live in’s finger.
In a brave moment the live in actually made eye contact with this elusive creature. His response…”he’s a cute little guy.” Guess what…nobody goes into war thinking that their enemy is the cutest little thing they’ve ever seen. Nobody. The live in needs to start seeing the mouse as his enemy…not a potential pet.
Because even if the live in doesn’t see this as war yet…the mouse certainly does. He made an extremely tactical move last night when he decided to poop on the broken trap that caught the live in’s finger. No joke.
Our next step…literally removing every single item from the storage unit and covering the floor in traps…again, no joke.

We had a similar issue, but there were four mice! We didn't know that at first and couldn't believe the mouse kept eating the peanut butter or cheese without getting trapped. It turns out they were all just so small that they didn't set off the traps. We were only able to trap one of them. I won't even tell you how Jeremy killed the rest. I'm glad I was not in the room. It made me kind of sad because they were pretty small and cute.
