  2. Not to freak you out even more but about a year and a half ago we had what we thought was a mouse and turned out to be FIVE. Good luck catching them. The best traps we found were the sticky traps but also the nastiest to dispose of...

  3. Eeeeeeek! Ok...worst mouse story ever: We're over at a friend's house, and the kids all come up stairs freaking out. "there's a mouse, there's a mouse!" The teen goes downstairs with a BASEBALL BAT!...and comes up with a dead mouse. EWWWWWWWW!!!!

    I'd go with the sticky traps, too...and get Juice to uh...dispose.

  4. @Lolli, nice to talk to you!

    @Candis, this is our second run in with mice. The first one we only had one...but maybe we just have super smart mice that don't like peanut butter! I may have to resort to the sticky traps.

    @Splats, ugh, that is is an awful story! Looks like I may need some sticky traps!
