The war between man and mouse is alive and well in our household and I do believe we are winning. It is now month three in this campaign and I now suspect the mice are taunting me.  I found mouse  droppings on top of the mouse trap today… the part that is supposed to close the trap.   It’s like they are saying “look where I have been, catch me if you can”.  Maybe they are getting nervous as their numbers diminish and are simply resorting to scare tactics.  They have a right to be scared, in May we caught 220 then in June another 68.  This month we have caught 4 bringing the total to 292!  Surely their army is down to just a few front liners…. the best of the best who have made it this far. Well this is my update on the war and I’m confident that by the end of Winter this house will be a mouse free zone.
