[QUOTE="slsh, post: 131868, member: 8"] Our house backs up to a field and we usually get a couple of mice in winter time. I've tried setting traps (those sticky kinds, not the snapping kind) but I've never caught one. Of our 3 cats, 2 are mousers. Figaro has gotten too old now (14) to be real effective but in his prime he not only caught mice, but he'd bolt out the door and bring us birds. Elsie is pure cat. She has amazing patience and if she suspects a mouse, she'll sit there until she gets it. She also will bolt outside and has brought us birds and a vole once. I really *do* wish they wouldn't play with their catches - yuck! This is the first town we've lived in where mice were a problem and it does make me a bit queasy. These are the tiny little mice and I figure they're just trying to stay warm. Wish I knew how they were getting in the house! on the other hand - compared to the possums we found in our garage, mice aren't so bad. ;) [/QUOTE]
