This is gross to admit but there are mice living in my house. In the past month or so I've seen mice scampering across the floor a few times, usually at night. A few weeks ago an exterminator gave my mom and I some sticky mousetraps to trap them but with no luck. Then this morning Mom found a fat mouse in the cupboard eating flour. She trapped it in there but the question is what are we going to do with it now? I don't want to kill it. Is it really so bad to have a few mice living in your house? Any suggestions?
I've always had a soft side for mice. I don't think people get them because they're gross. When I was little, we lived next to a ditch, so it was pretty common to have mice and stuff. Once, my mom woke me up with her screams in the middle of the night because she found a mouse in the closet. I was like four and I remember sitting in bed, sleepy eyed, and saying, "Don't get scared Mom. Look at it, it's so cute, it looks like Jerry."
ReplyDeleteI don't have suggestions, but I don't think it's wrong. As long as they don't overrun your house. Plus, you never know, maybe you'll find a Remy in your kitchen one day.
It is funny to find a mouse in the kitchen after watching Ratatouille. I kept thinking about that scene where the old lady gets out the shotgun. If only all mice were cute little cartoon rodents like Remy.
