Little bastard was just trying to eek out a living. I give it props for surviving most of the winter with my cats (who apparently aren't mousers), but it got too bold and started getting into the crackers in the pantry.

Hope it was just the one mouse. At least I haven't heard a chorus of skittering and claws.

hopefully you used the type of trap that instantly kills them with the metal bar (spring trap) instead of one that makes them suffer to death like a glue trap or poison trap.

Those cats are walking proudly to give TC a medal. You don't think Tom would personally congratulate TC on his act?

Don't feel bad, mice are riddled with diseases. Gotta get them out somehow. Also there usually is more than one :/

Yeah, no. Spring and bar here, like my parents taught me. Fucker was dead the instant he hit it. No poison or glue; just a bit of cracker and peanut butter to create friction on the spring pad (fucker pulled the cracker off the first time lol).

You know what feels worse?

I set up live traps in my garage because I thought we had a mouse. I was going to let it go in a park a few miles away. A few weeks go by and we assume we just didn't have a mouse. A couple weeks later we found a dead one in a trap. I felt terrible.

I checked it everyday for weeks and thought I was just wrong about there being a mouse. I left the traps out and forgot about them.

Couple months ago I made a topic about there being a mouse in my apartment. CE predicted more. Lo and behold, I ended up killing about 8 of them. I just set another trap because Im pretty sure I heard another.

My dog got a couple, but the most recent, I felt bad. It survived the trap and got its leg stuck :(

If the mouse has been around for long enough then there's probably more hiding somewhere. We had an outbreak a few years ago that got pretty bad but luckily we were having renovations done so anywhere they could have been hiding was basically gutted and they all left. We saw one like a year and a half later but managed to kill it that night and haven't seen one since.

Fortunately my place isn't very large, so there's only so many spaces where they could actually hide. I'll wait and see, but for now I don't hear any more scrabbling where it used to be.

Ive been there. Its just one of those dark things we have to lock away. But its actually good that you feel bad, because there are some sickos out there who like that stuff.

In my personal experience, the only way to really solve the problem is to put those green poison logs in certain places (behind the refrigerator or somewhere you know they go, but your pets and kids cant get). They will bring it back to the nest. This way you dont have to physically see it and killing one or two doesnt make a difference when theyre breeding in the walls.

They sell no kill traps on Amazon. After capturing Id drive it to the nearest woods or wherever. Maybe a predator is hungry and will capture it wherever you drop it off.

Thats really cool, but when the problem is out of control, you have to get them at the source. You have to know how to avoid them, too. Putting bird seed out is a great way to attract them.

My dog pounced on out before, but shes scared of most things. The cat caught one or two, but she didnt kill it. She brought it to the younger cat because she was trying to teach her how to hunt.

My younger dog plays with them until they die. And my older dog caught one in midair when I knocked it off the doorframe. My cat just catches them whenever she sees one. But havent seen one for a long time, now. Before I had my cat, I would sometimes wait up from a nap in the couch in the living room. And when I looked on the dog couch, they would sometimes have a dead mouse between them

I've been told to maybe not feed the cat for a brief time so it begins to hunt for the mouse to eat.

I hate it too, but if you don't kill the single mouse, you'll be killing more if they are allowed to nest and breed in your place.

You'll want to spill out the extra money to get the plastic traps with bait doors. The classic snap traps are cheap, but are a pain to set up, and the mouse could evade the trap, or get the bait without setting it off. Also it could injure the mouse and cause it to go into shock.
