Bleuuuuggh I just found a mouse in the trap in the conservatory (fully dead, thankfully). I don't like mousetraps anymore. But is there a better alternative? I also don't like mouse droppings and piss all over my home and scratching noises at night. I know live traps exist, but what the hell are you supposed to do with the mice? Introducing a load of live mice into random fields doesn't sound like a good idea to me. Clearly we need a cat, at least then it's fair. For now I'll keep to the death traps and hope the mice spontaneously go away to be eaten by neighbourhood cats.
