Got a frantic MSN message from the girlfriend this morning.

[10:19] NaughtyMissWhippy: babe,can you come home for dinner please?
[10:19] NaughtyMissWhippy: i just had the fright of my life
[10:19] NaughtyMissWhippy: and i now know what the funny smell is up here
[10:21] NaughtyMissWhippy: ok, babe, msg back as soon as you can 'cause i aint going in the kitchen!
[10:22] NaughtyMissWhippy: and you might want to seriously clean this place up
[10:22] Whipped: why, what's up?
[10:22] NaughtyMissWhippy: you have mice

Yay!! Went home with some rat/mouse killer stuff. Hopefully it's just the one that's snuck in somehow. Knew I should have picked up that onion I dropped on the floor in January

We had this problem not so long ago, we were placing a trap and finding a fresh corpse every single morning. They stopped and we slowly started noticing a horrible 'trash like' smell.

After some exploring we found a dead mouse behind the skirting board, half decomposed in zombie like state (he had a glazed look which suggested he might be craving brains). My housemate decided it'd be a good idea to try and get it out by gripping it with a clothes peg; which ripped out half the mouses side no doubt kidneys and all. I've never come so close to throwing up over just a smell in my life uke:

Eventually we've solved the problem by plugging the holes with steel wire (brillo pad type mesh) and a 'mouse device' which emits a noise they hate. All has been clear since.

Good luck with the bastards, it's worse when you find one half dead and have to kill it. The mice are kinda cute.

When a cat catches a mouse it either (a) eats it or (b) presents it to you as a gift (could be half eaten though). Cats generally do not hide their prize in the cupboard, the only time this happens is when the cat traps the mouse and it dies of fright.

You might get corpses littered about, but the mice dont stay long enough to eat any of your food or crap in huge piles beneath the floorboards.

We constantly have mice.

We live in a rather, erm, rural locale, and the bastards come in at night in the winter.
I cought 3 a night for about 4 months this past winter up in the loft. You can here the little shits running around on the fecking ceiling.

What amazes me is the fact the traps obviously catch the little begger who goes for the bait (I find chocolate Bounty works a treat btw) but the bait is always missing afterwards!!!
Obviously his buddies dont give a fuck that Mouse 1 has just had his nose caved in by a metal bar, they just see the bounty and take it. I just hope that they are Mouse 1 the next evening

 

[Lazarus]

we live out in the sticks too - never been troubled by mice (we have a cat )

Folk across the road are in the same boat as Wil!

Cat + mouse = win

Not a good combination, really..

Our cat got hold of one and ripped the bloody things head off and dumped it on our kitchen worktop ffs, it bled ALL over and it stank to high heaven, not a pretty site to see a beheaded mouse on your kitchen worktop with a pool of blood to accompany it.

 

[Cyfr]

We had mice, my dog used to find them and play with them by chucking em about

 

[kanonfodda]

I heard something once, when I was happily watching telly, thought I would check it out. Found a sodding mouse behind the TV, so trapped it in meh class (pint) and then drowned the little sod, threw the corpse outside for the cats next door.

Not seen anything since.

Cat + mouse = win

You've obviously never met my cat. Until yesterday we had 2 mice living in the kitchen shitting everywhere (we had a nice trap that didn't kill them and freed them in a field), one day one of them ran past the cat who was busy screaming for a packet of meat.

The little bugger is the one who brings them in to play with, lets em go and is too stupid to find em again. Mind you I prefer it that way, he used to catch rats and pull them inside-out then leave them on the carpet for me to find in the morning.

The next time that happens, I want pictures

We got a cat to catch mice, but didn't quite work out. The cat just plays with them, and the mouse escapes. My dog is better at catching mice as he kills them quick, but he's old and fat now .

remember, if you *see* a mouse, odds are theres about 400 of them in the walls/floors/dustbins/beds/etc.

*never goes home*
Some of the posioned food was eaten this morning. Well maybe. Going to photograph it before I go to bed tonight so I know it's not just my mind playing tricks on me.

I feel like I should grow a pointy goatee, wear a top hat and a black cloak and sit in the kitchen going, "MUHAHAHA!"

What I did when we had mice was sprinkle a fine layer of flour around the edges of the room, so then you can see where the mice are coming in and out. That way you can either plug up the hole with an expanding foam sealant (we did that, as they were in the loft, coming down via pipes to feast in the kitchen, so we put the bait in the loft and sealed them in) or you can at least work out where to forage for decaying miceness.

ick!! never had you pegged for mouse-death fetishness Lou

I'm a mystery, wrapped in an enigma, wrapped in a pair of faded pyjamas.

 

[Miss Whippy]

[Miss Whippy]

Well, I guess you could wear a top hat,a black coat and sit in the kitchen going MUHAHAHA babe,but as for growing a pointy goaty?No chance babe,you can only just manage to grow a bit of stubble.But,you now how a like a man with a nice smooth body

Provided you nail its legs to a block of wood first?

Only mice we've had have been ones cats have given as gifts to us.. they did bring a bird in once which started going fucking insane flying around the kitchen trying to escape half dead... eventually we got it out... I would like to think my cats destroy any incoming enemies to this house but I have the feeling two of them prefer sleeping.
