We had them a couple of times- maybe we have more, hiding in my roommate's room, but haven't seen evidence in the house for awhile.<BR/><BR/>We've used both the glue and the snappers. The glue has worked, and the mice have also escaped. Hit-or-miss, I guess.<BR/><BR/>I would love to just get a cat, but my hubby claims to be allergic. :)<BR/><BR/>So I, too, settle for the intimidating snappers.<BR/><BR/>I'm getting better about going for the snapper kind when it comes to life. Dealing with conflict when it comes up rather than letting the mice nest. It's a work in progress. :)Avily Jeromehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08201659100248261370noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-294580011480550687.post-5666834443259178132008-11-11T10:18:00.000-08:002008-11-11T10:18:00.000-08:00If you can identify the area where they are gettin...If you can identify the area where they are getting in (and it can be small - those little "rats" are quite agile!), you can try blocking their entrance by stuffing it with steel wool. Mice will not gnaw through this for some reason. It is what has kept mice out of Barry and my kitchen and basement for about the past six years...and I've never had to change it out or deal with dead carcasses.

It's worth considering that sometimes it may be worth getting a cat. :-) Whatever that means on a symbolic level.Rosslyn Elliotthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11304732306399786236noreply@blogger.com
