Last night about 8:30 while Ryan and I were sitting in the living room watching TV we saw a mouse run across the kitchen floor. Unfortunately this is nothing new here. As a matter of fact we have invested in the mouse thing that you plug into your outlet that sends a noise or something through your electircal current to keep them from nesting in your house. We bought this in the spring and have had a low mouse count since(granted it's summer and we usually do). Either way I was not pleased. I am not the run and scream type of girl when I see a mouse, as a matter of fact, I am the get my boot and lets kill it type of girl. So needless to say I was ticked because it went to "its" hiding place and all we were left to do was set a few traps in the well traveled mouse paths. This morning I went to check the traps and I was the first one awake. Trap #1 was MIA!!!! This is not the first we have had a mouse run away with the trap and I know how stinky the last one was. So I pulled out the drawer under the stove to see if he had hid under there....no sign of him or the trap. The only next place he could have gone was under the fridge. Well, in lue of not getting 3 children's attentions and need to be setting up for the rummage, I thought, we could look tonight for the trap and mouse.
Again, around 8:30 while Ryan and I were watching TV I heard a clinking noise in the kitchen. YUP you guessed it, the mouse still in his trap(as you can tell from above, barely in the trap) was trying to go back to the dishwasher! The noise I heard was his trap that he was dragging! Tonight, I slayed the mouse with my boot!
