So the snap traps aren't working for us, unless our thumbs are the problem, which they are not. I peruse the "Death to Vermin" aisle in Food Lion and notice that there is a nice little trap that looks a lot easier to set, and bonus, mouse goes in, mouse trips death bar, mouse dies an instantaneous death, and the killers never have to see the victim.
Perfect. I buy two.
These are much, much easier to set. I put some peanut butter in the little cup (it says 1/8 of a teaspoon...but does it know that Mousey expects much more from us since he has had at least two tablespoons of peanut butter, a large piece of cheese, and two, yes two cheese on toasty wheat crackers? At least he is now much fatter and maybe his reflexes are a little slower).
We wait...
And wait...
YAHOOO! Here comes the rejoicing part! We have murdered another being!!!!
That day, I scrubbed shelves, disinfected shelves, and then put everything away.
Two mornings later...more mouse turds, all over my newly cleaned and disinfected shelves. AHHH! Mousy had friends (or maybe family)!
