Of Men and Mice…

We seem to have a new addition to our home. That is usually good news, but this time it may be that great. I heard a scream and ran down the steps to see what the matter was. My daughter had caught sight of a mouse running underneath the dishwasher and she was not happy at all. I calmed her down and promised to investigate the problem. I removed the dishwasher and indeed found traces of a mice home.

The mouse had a nice pile of cat food stacked up. I guess he was storing it for later. Anyway, I made a nice trap and laid it out that night. Using some old paper towel rolls, I taped them together and ran them up to a trash can. The mouse could not resist the tunnel and accordingly ran through and was caught in the can. I took the mouse for a nice ride and released him far from home.
