Standoff Ends: SuperMouse Finds Self in Sticky Situation

I was so thrilled to receive this text message from Shad today:

"Fridge mouse gone. Glue trap worked. Very large mouse. Released into wild with sticky foot."

He is probably lying. I'll bet he has made the mouse a new home and is secretly sneaking food to it when you are not looking. If Shad starts wearing a chef's hat and his arms begin to move funny while he is cooking, you have a big problem. This is the man that refused to save his mother from a bat, which are seriously just mice with wings.

I stocked up on the kind of traps that the mouse actually enters and then the trap encloses him completely (brandname Tom Cat or something like that.) I refuse to use spring traps because I can still see the mouse, even if it is dead, and I absoulutely refuse to let Leon reuse the traps if he does manage to catch a rodent. The trap goes out with the mouse because it is just too yucky thinking about traps stored in the kitchen that have had dead mice on them. Bleeeaaaaahhhhh. The whole body trap means I don't have to see the dead ones or touch them.

And mice carry Bubonic plague. And fleas. And they are little poop machines. I don't even want to know what kind of stuff lives in mouse poop.

You have my full support on killing them entirely dead. Do NOT let Shad talk you into keeping snakes to catch the mice. He likes snakes too.
