I had a mouse problem in the house once. I set out 4 traps and caught at
least 3 every night for about a week. And my (Vanagon) point is - you never
have just one!!!!

One morning I had one caught only by his tail. He was alive - he'd run in
place a while, rest a while, run in place... So I got the bright idea that I
would drown him in the sink. I released him from the trap into the sink. He
ran around the sink twice then ducked into the hole in the center, so I
turned on the water and hit the switch..... "The end" wasn't exactly planned
this way.

Thanks, Tom Hargrave

something about the scent of original Irish Spring bar soap repels them also
- with a longer,more practicle service life than dryer sheets (which do
work)

I have great success with dryer sheets in all the cabinets and battery
compartments.....the clean smell seems to drive them off.�
