How could that mouse not smell the scent of death on that trap? Vintage? :shock:
Very vintage...I live in the country and re-use them all the time...the smell of cheese over powers the smell of death, apparently. Actually the trap in the pic got retired though...The spring broke. It had been set outdoors by my door and it was the closest one I could get last night.

And yeah, I have had them eat each other out in my shop.

Good thing it was just a few small ones. Looks like you would need help to set these up if you have to move to phase 2.

I purchased a luxury leather recliner from craigslist for $200 last week, and just had the movers drop it off on Saturday and take out my old one (which cost me another $200 including a generous tip). This thing is a throne - Dude bought this with a matching leather couch for $5000 last year for his wife, who just left him in August. Bummer in the summer, I can relate. I've had it for 2 days and have taken at least 6 naps in it. Merry xmas to me...














I called mine the life sucking chair, once the footstool went up it was just a matter of time.

I have to admit my fear last night with all the snow was, a baby rat....Very thankful it was only a couple mice. They probably followed me from the shop, because I fed them a couple of Milk duds last week....lol

In 15 years here I have only had mice inside the house like 2-3 times...This place is tight, but they can squeeze right under the bottom of a door through the weather-stripping....or chew through a wall under siding.

I lived in a mobile home next to a dairy farm for a few years when I was like 20 years old...I DID have mice all the time, and 2 rats came in there. BIG BIG rats!! I'm still traumatized 40 years later!!

That kid is nuts, his neighbors must live in terror: he built a 200 watt car mounted laser death ray. I recognized the driveway where he tests all his implements of destruction, Here is his deathray build, you'll see the driveway around 5:45 min into it
