Annual Spring Mouse Massacre

[Armitage]

I noticed last week that I suddenly seem to have alot of mice down in the shed where the dogs, dogfood, etc. are. So I went on the warpath starting Friday night. 4 spring traps baited with peanut butter. So far:

Traps: 14
Boot: 1
Club: 1

I caught one yesterday within two minutes of setting the trap - heard it snap as I walked out the door. Played whack-a-mole with another that was popping out of a hole in the top of the dogfood bin.

No sign of slowing so far. It's of particular concern in our area due to Hanta virus. That and lots of rodents attract snakes, possibly rattlesnakes.

That's a lot of mice. Keep at it. If you see them, there are too many, and by taking them out you're doing your duty as a predator. 😀

I'll get a live-trap and mail you a few if you promise to give them a good home 😛

One more down tonight, another trap was sprung, but no victim.
A slow day - maybe the herd is a bit thinned out. Fresh peanut butter and two more traps, so we'll see tomorrow.

Sides of the same coin, right?

Lol - finally somebody that doesn't think I'm some kind of anime fan.

LOL! Is there an 'armitage' in anime? I have no idea...

And you've read Ender's Game right?

Apparently, I don't know either.

Yep, I picked up on that.

BB guns are fun too.
Sit around with a case of beer and a chair, have some fun with friends.
