There is a mouse. If he wasn't in the house and a constant irritation to the wife, I would probably be daydreaming about how to make a pet out of him. He's kinda cute. But, he's gotta go.
I've had traps out for him for months. I see some of the paths he travels and put traps right where he goes. I butter them up generously with peanut butter, not just any peanut butter, but MY GOOD peanut butter. He ignores it completely. I've seen him walk right by it and never even a glance.
I thought mice loved peanut butter? I guess I got a weird one. But he really needs to go. I suppose I could resort to a sticky trap but there's something about those that really bother me. I'd rather not do that if there's another way.
So I thought I'd ask, does anyone have suggestions for a mouse that's a picky eater? Or maybe there's a different kind of a trap? Those electric chair for mice ones are expensive but if that's what it takes?
Thanks!
