I have had a mouse for about two weeks in my house. Short end of the story, I went out last night and bought a snap trap and found my little friend dead this morning. They also leave some sort of wierd funk? Any ideas what it is??

whats really discusting is when you find a dead mouse under the sink that has been there for about 2 years and your boss makes you pick it up and it falls apart

Crap, don't let those PETA wackos know you killed a mouse. They might firebomb your house, since they value critter life more than human life........

yeah, pretty nasty.
it would be it's worst at about 1-2 weeks dead.
after that, not as much smell, and just gets hard and rots.
1-2 weeks dead it would freaking REEK.
2 years old... it's just petrified :p

I think you almost certainly have more than one. Was the 'funk' coming from our newly dead friend? Or a place where one could have died in a wall cavity or something.

The killing trap is a lot more humane than a glue trap imho. They never knew what hit em. You need to keep rodents outta your house. They carry stuff like the hanta virus :Q

Mouse burger???

Got a pet snake? If not, toss it outside and let the nature take care of it.

Or mail it to PETA.:D

is that like the HAUNTA virus :Q

The virus is believed to be carried by the deer mice, the cotton rat, the white footed mice, and maybe even the rice mice; and it was first thought to be a four corners disease, but it is now known that it is in over half the states in the United States. The Haunta Virus has been found in all of the western states including Washington, as well as in many eastern states, and also in to the southern part of Canada.
