Mice?

[Harlequin]

This is probably a stupid question but I have a damned mouse in the house that refuses to eat from the traps I've laid about the place.
It's not going to give me or the foetus some evil mouse disease is it?

Stupid bush, stupid mice, I'm so sick of them.
Normally I just trap them and throw them out without a second thought, but im all worried cause im pregnant.

I ate a biscuit a moment ago, then found a biscuit that was broken and looked odd like it had been nibbled, now I feel all disgusting and horrified that I may have eaten a biscuit that was in a packet a mouse had gotten to. *cries* :barf:

Hi ya, i'm sure you've got nothing to worry about, I don't think they carry any germies that would hurt you or the baby, what are you putting on the traps? i've found that peanut butter works well and vegemite for some strange reason,

This was a great thread on miceys a while ago... might have some handy hints for you.... or perhaps a bit of a laugh ;)

Today i bought this mortenin trap that im going to try works the same as the cockroach trap you put peanut butter in it seal it and then i put it in the roof and the mouse has to crawl into the container to get the food and then the thing locks shut on it trapping it in there and then you dispose of it i gather there must be something in it to kill it:eek:

Cheers Jem, I was going through some of the old mice threads earlier :D

Babyangels im currently using a mix of cheese and peanut butter. It usually works but this mouse is extra smart :(

I've tried a few different traps, I used to use the humane ones but they get full of poo and wee and vomit and it smells and its kinda horrid. To be honest id just as sooner have the plastic traps snap their neck. As horrible as that sounds.

Im so sick of them though, this one is in my new tv cabinet and he has wee'd in there and it smells. It's so depressing. Stupid mouse.
