A MOUSE!

Mar 21, 2011 22:34

RUNNING OVER MY CARPET! A TINY FLUFFY ADORABLE GREY MOUSE!

I heard it trying to gnaw its way through the attic walls and I bought a tech-thingie that is supposed to ward them off by high-frequency sound.

DOESN'T SEEM TO HAVE WORKED ALL THAT WELL NOW, DOES IT?

You could buy a mouse trap that won't kill it...

Yeah, I know those. I will have to buy some tomorrow.

If I look weird on wednesday it's because it ate my nose in my sleep.

I think I might just sleep in the guest room tonight. LOL. I am not scared, but it is weird. I don't want it to walk over me. And I can still hear it nibble and gnaw.

God, do I know the feeling. That's why I can't sleep over at friends' places if the friends keep cats.

There are live traps that don't kill them, just... well, trap them. Only thing you have to do is set them out very, VERY far from your home because they find their way back up to 2 km, apparently.

I know those traps. I will have to buy some. And I will sleep in the guest room tonight. Little mousie is VERY active.

And yes, I heard that about them finding their way back, too.

i have no suggestions, but i'm impressed that you managed to take pics of the mouse!!!

An action pic nonetheless. THAT IS BECAUSE IT IS QUITE UNFAZED BY MY EXISTENCE. It is all "Oh, human, WHATEVS! She's too far away anyways."

ARGH.

We have a mouse too! Though thankfully it's not running around in my room, it's just in my floor scratching around. It's been making a home for itself in our pantry and made a stash of cookies it stole. Yeesh, mice!

We just set out normal traps, though. They're cute and all, but way too much of a pest to bother trying to save them haha.

It has been in the floor for a while in winter but then it stopped, the scratching I mean, when I bought that gadget thingie. But now it is in my room. YEESH, INDEED!

I bought a cage-trap. I hope it works. I can'T kill it. That would make me sad.

Clever mouse, stealing your yummy cookies!

Awww, he's so sweet, sitting up in the plant like that. It's like your room is a little mousey playground.

Good luck with the no-kill trap - it seems like your best option.

He was trying ti climb up the deco-string that hang behind the plant. I think he tried getting back up into the ceiling. He also tried climbing the wires above my tv and fell on his ass with a cute thud sound.

He is so adorable. But I don't like the thought of him running over my face while I sleep.
