One day I opened the closet door and it was like SNOW all over the floor in there! Sneaky bugger had burrowed INTO the box and all the way through the styrofoam! It took FOREVER to vacuum up all those little floaty pieces of white.

We used both the 'traditional' traps and the sticky trays...we never caught any with the traditional traps. My grandfather lives out in the country so after catching them we took them across the street to the woods and poured some oil on the sticky pads.

I get a random one once in a while but am good at catching them. The best bait is a small bread crumb then cover it in honey. Works every time.<br />That oatmeal looks yummy, I might have some for breakfast today.Aliciahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16676408618079647211noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-32929895344517618272012-02-05T06:59:56.747-05:002012-02-05T06:59:56.747-05:00Ahhh, field mice.

They can get into the house through a hole the size of a nickel and all they want is food and a warm bed. I got the traps that you stick pb at the end and they go in and the door closes on them, sort of a mouse motel. Then I drive them across town and release them.

When I was about 18, I was driving my Neon and every time I came to a stop, I saw what looked like a ball of some sort rolling out from under the passenger seat to the front of the car, and then it would roll back under the seat. Until at one stop, it didn't--and I saw that it was a MOUSE running back and fourth. I screamed and kind of overreacted, of course--I put my catKatie Fosterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04733849582309631730noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4904256286279591900.post-67426032394724598432012-02-05T01:08:27.115-05:002012-02-05T01:08:27.115-05:00My run was scheduled for today, but I just posted ...My run was scheduled for today, but I just posted in my blog about wanting to go yesterday when I wasn't supposed to. I like how you say it was an easy run at that fast of a pace :) Of course I am still at a 20 minute mile :) As for the bingeing, I think you should be very proud of the streak that you had.

I was puzzled and threw it away. Then I left my headphones in the car and when I went to pick them up the next day, I only had headphones in my hand- the cord was still in the cupholder! Haha!
