I think I have a mouse
 
in my garage... not cool.. I hope it did not make it into the house.

I was moving my car stuff and found little bits of poo that would be mouse sized... I don't think it came with the new interior I bought since we shook and dropped those pieces a lot..

what would be the humane way of capturing one of these critters

Kill the dirty little bastards.

I kindof like mice actually....they are really cute but in my garage or home I will kill them without remorse because of the damage they can do.

If you want to catch it alive, then you might try one of these.

Still no better invention than the mouse trap.

Exactly, I had a mouse infestation in my finished "barn" the leetle bastards were chewing the seal on my garage door and destroying anything they could in the barn I tried trap and poison but the only thing poison did was make the turds green and they got wise to the traps...


until, I discovered carcasses in an used oil drain pan so I made a little mouse plank so they can get in with a piece of food suspended in the middle, they walk the plank jump into the oil......case closed.

Isn't their an old trick where you take a 5 gallon bucket, fill it 2/3 with water and spread some seed on the top of the water so it looks solid. Then you put some seeds on a plank so follow the trail and jump right in?

An old farmer was telling me thats what he used to do.

I had the garage door open a few weeks ago and I was enjoying a cold one in the driveway. I looked in at my WVO barrel and noticed movement. It was a mouse licking up the dripped WVO off the top. I tried the 5 gal bucket with food at the bottom thinking he could not jump out. Wrong! The crackers were gone and so was the mouse. I don't like to kill them if I don't have to.

your bucket was maybe two or three inches too short.

Glue traps work well.

TheDon 12-15-2007 05:26 PM

glue traps are wrong..

We are just going to let the little bugger come and go as he pleases.

You should be able to buy live traps for mice at the hardware store. I used them for a few years, but I now resort to poison. I caught one a few years ago and took it near the South Platte river to release it. Poor bastard. When I opened the trap it took off on a beeline as fast as it could, right over the 6' bank and into the river.
