  1. It was actually a reference to the other Sarah’s worse things than mice comment in the thread below.
    Bloody cat.

  2. so the cat was sick? huh?

  3. LOL Mouse didn’t taste too good then?

  4. That’s the one, cat did indeed redecorate the living room floor. 🙁

  5. Yuck.
    I suggest you get lots of lovely red mouse food under your floors, in the airing cupboard etc. They can climb so lofts are a favourite place as they also love heat.

  6. I have heard something moving about in our loft, but I think it was wearing boots.
    My brother once had one crawl into the air vent in his car and die while lying on the heater element. Used to smell lovely when it got warmed up a bit.

  7. I confess that it would worry me putting anything down to kill them, I can’t think it’s any more hygienic having little corpses around the place than it is having mice. Hohum.

  8. we use humane traps when we get mice in the house. We have about 4, which we set every night & usually all mice are out within about 3 days. They’re very good & no dead bodies or poison in the house. You just have to get to them before the kids do in the morning… 😉

  9. They do sound like they’re tapdancing when they’re in the ceiling tim – we have quite a few in our wall spaces in the winter, and now I know they’re not actually huge rats I don’t worry about them any more

  10. Little mouse corpses just dessicate and don’t smell.
    Rats, on the other hand, don’t and do.
    Not that you really wanted to know that…

  11. No Kris, you are sooo wrong. My brother had a mouse crawl into the ventilation system in his car. It expired lying on top of the air heater element. Trust me, it smelt b a d when he switched the heater on. 🙂

  12. Do you ever get the feeling you are starting to repeat yourself?
