I found a window that had been blown open in the basement.. No screen. GREAT! There are sure to be a bunch. By the by, I do not recomend poison. It slows their blood circulation and makes them seek warmer places, like say the coils in your fridge, no joke. Dead rotten mouse plus heat, Not good for the essence of ones home. I tried sticky traps, but then they were stuck, but alive. Now I found sticky traps with anistetic. It grabs them and knocks them out, then you throw away the whole deal!<BR/>You can thank Don by the way for the mouse info on poison. I know you just LOVE all the info he shares :)Sarah M.https://www.blogger.com/profile/07504580998498244803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7908185560435429588.post-40407296533161030312008-10-28T10:20:00.000-05:002008-10-28T10:20:00.000-05:00We woke up to snow flurries too!!
