I live a bachelor lifestyle, so I have no food in here. Just alcohol. I hope the mouse figures that out and goes away. I should get some traps in case it doesn’t. I hate killing animals but there’s no practical alternative.

If you get a glue trap, they’re stuck, and now you have to deal with a live, suffering animal. If you get a regular mouse trap, they’ll almost certainly have their necks immediately, and humanely broken before you find them. I know that’s still not great, but it’s the better of the options available. I know of no animal-rights person that wants rats crawling over them while they sleep…
I use the snap traps, although the last time I did that, I had to execute a few mortally wounded mice, which was not fun. So many mice were coming into my old house that I resorted to rat poison there (I don’t expect things to get that bad here) but glue traps are over the line for me.
We’re on the same side. I had a mouse in the 3rd floor of my first apartment building, and had to humanely put it out of its ❔mystery❓ when I finally caught it. ☹️ I haven’t used a glue trap since then…
*DAMN YOU, AUTOCORRECT!
I know it’s a autocorrect, but “humanely put out of it’s mystery” is exquisite boneappletea
That is pretty great…
They climb pretty well, because I’m 14 stories up.
Yeah, that definitely came down from one of your neighbors…
Maybe it took the stairs.
Check out the electric mouse traps. Mouse walks in, there’s a snap sound, mouse is instantly dead. Worked well for me
