So there I was asleep in bed last night, it was about 1:30am and I was basking in a post masturbatory glow. Anyhoo I heard a rustling from under the bad. Balls I thought to myself, the dog must have snuck out of his cage. So I fumble for the light switch and turn it on, only to see a small grey streak of something dive for a gap in the skirting board.
I guess we've got A mouse, but then again if I've seen 1 it probably means we've got 50, that means its trapping time. So as a guitarist what is your favourite mouse trap bait? Cheese like in cartoons or something crazy like peanut butter & raisins?
By the way I'm trapping to kill not catch & release. Fuck 'em they're only mice.
(do we want pictures?)

Hempseed works really well for trapping mouses.
OR my cat Charlie, who seems to find every mouses in the county, while never leaving the garden.

We used to have two cats who used to bring in lots of mice ... then let them go.
Ahhh good times. I remember grabbing one mouse by its tail as it ran off. It kept going leaving the tail in my hand, I felt a bit bad about that.

They are only into cheese as a last resort if they can't find anything else.
Seriously: If you value it, take/fetch it yourself
Block up their holes with steel wool (inb4 crude joke) and put dishes of peppermint oil around the place to ward them off.
Or get a cat
My first move would be to hide the van keys.

our youngest cat is a killing machine. Not long ago we had friends staying and that night she brought in about 5 mice. SHowing off.
Its calmed down recently, that's due to the snow, but before that it was about 3 or 4 a week, alive and dead. Then there's the birds, pigeons usually. The last one, she ragged so badly, I had to get the pigeon and wring its neck. It was beyond help. Thing is, I've never wrung a neck before, and I pulled the chuffing head off.
Which was great, being a vegetarian, yeah, I felt really good about that. BLeeding claret everywhere.
Peanut butter as bait on a real bastard of a mousetrap did the trick.

I get them coming in to my garage - tried the humane traps at first - they're shit .
I use 2" Little Nipper" traditional style mousetraps and peanut butter and that does the trick .
