I don't like mice either, and see them all the time in my parents house. I'll be over visiting on the weekend and see the mouse, well the part the cat didn't eat after he drug it in from outside, and go"Eeeeeeeewwwwww" and get some paper towels.

Nothing like a steaming pile of mouse guts to start your day :)

My suggestion to you: Don't use the sticky mouse traps. Sometimes they'll chew off their own legs to get out of those and you're left with a bloodly leg with a trail of blood going across your room. What's reallly sick is sometimes another mouse will come and try to eat the body parts/dead mouse.

One guy said he had one mouse get caught and chew its leg off only to get stuck when it took another step into the paper and one bled to death right there. A second one came by and started to chew on the first one and got itself stuck on the paper too. While it was trying to get loose, a third mouse walked by and started to eat the first one and got stuck also. This third one only got one leg stuck on the paper so it was able to drag itself and the other mice across the room before it eventually died in a corner. You could tell exactly what path it took trying to escape the pursuit of (what it must have been thinking) two mouse zombies because one of them was bleeding everywhere and left a nice trail to follow.

ok the bloody mouse story isnt helping.

oh and just to clarify.. both the mouse and the centipede got in because we are remodeling our kitchen and the hallway between the kitchen and my room... which also happens to be where the garage is. so theyre putting up new walls and right now all there is is a frame and the garage door is open all die so they dont get as hot working in there. so yeah. stupid kitchen. i slept in the living room last nite and i wouldnt go in my room this morning (even though were pretty positive its in the kitchen). yeah i realize its dumb but i dont like mice unless they are in a cage. then theyre cute :p

we have mice in my aprtment.....my gf gets so paranoid about it, its funny, but sometimes annoying. We caught one the other day with a glue trap. That trap is so unhumane, it made me sad. The poor little mouse was so stressed and his bone popped out from his skin and he was bleeding from his chin b/c his skin ripped. We have had those little rat poisen packets that my school put down in my room. 2 days ago, a mouse tore through it and now its everywhere, so we just put it int teh little corner where the hole is. I have not seen a mouse since, but now they are probably back in teh kitchen.

Mice piss me off. One time we had a mouse problem in our house and we kept the cereal on the lowers shelves and mice would get into the cereal. So one time I caught one in there and I closed the lid of the cereal took the box outside and then filled it with gasoline. I then proceded to set the box on fire and a little ball of flame jumped out and ran. What can I say, nobody comes between me and my food.

Same thing happened to me, only it was in the kitchen and the mouse decided to head vertical up my pants leg. :D

I can't believe you would think that you'd be critized by the losers on here. Most here are pimple faced, pizza eating, coke drinking, staying up all night to play counter-strike with Star Trek playing in the background, nerds. (No offense guys, I pretty much fit that whole thing except for the CS.) Their comments shouldn't hurt.

You're beautiful! That should boost your confidence a little. huh?

Jesus Christ, the amount of misogyny on this board essentially answers any questions I may have had about any guys who have problems with women. Learn to respect others and *gasp* maybe others will like you.

Nice pics, Caitlin (the logical extension to your name). Hope the mouse hunt goes well.

Shalom!

I used a sticky trap before, but I checked the trap every morning and eventually got the little sucker. But of course it was still alive and very much attached to the trap in a very uncomfortable position, so instead of tossing him in the trash alive I did the humane thing and drowned him in the toilet. I couldn't stand to watch him gasping for air under the water so I pushed him against the toilet wall to push all his lung air out so he would hurry up and breath in the water and die faster.

:(

Normally if I catch a mouse alive, I just let it go outside and enjoy a short but happy life.. but then my cat inevitably catches every living creature and brings it back into the house only to leave it's head and stomach or whatever that inedible organ is.

ugh, this stories are way to gross.

caitlon, you are so pretty! I love your hair and you have beautiful eyes! I understand about the criticism..that's why I haven't posted a picture! :)

You know, I am not nearly as afraid of mice as I am of insects and bugs. Rats are probably a little different, though.

a little later i was leaving my room for some reason and i saw a tail go into my closet and then into where i keep my clothes (a little built-into-the-wall dresser type thing), so i ran out and yelled for my moms bf and after chasing it all around my room and out into the kitchen, we believe it is behind the kitchen counters. so i went to albertsons and got some sticky mouse traps and put them by the opening to the cabinets (where it most likely got in), in the garage, in the bathroom, and in front of my door. god that is so gross. there was a centipede in my room the other nite too.. and one in the bathroom the next nite. i want to go sleep in my car :*(


I wasted a minute of my grumpy morning on this post :disgust:

you're telling me you come to ATOT for SUBSTANCE?

Hahahah... the sticky paper mice story was so funny and yet horrible.

I don't like mice because the second I see them I think "They are dirty and there is more of them". A clean mouse on the other hand is cool. If I am wrong in thinking that house mice are dirty, oops, but I am pretty sure they arn't the best things to have running around your home.
