The bloody mouse is back!!!

[mickc22]

:wow: didn\'t expect this kinda response lol
I was thinking of catching it and then put it in with the rats (pets) and see what happens

although the expanding foam is intriguing also

don\'t like cats, so they\'re out

I\'ll see your cat sized rat and raise you a rat up the toilet! had to put a brick on the lid for a week so it would stop coming up

 

[mickc22]

better play the right card first!

the little sod was on the worktop this morning!
I moved the kettle and a shadow went behind the coffee machine, thought I was just seeing things until he darted out and fell in the sink, thought I had him then as he was having trouble getting out of it. While I was thinking about how to get him he got out and ran round to the other end and under the microwave
had to take the missus to work then, by the time I got back he was gone
little bugger, he's getting a trap this time!!

stuffing the holes (if you can find them) with foil works as they apparently dont like to chew through it

Of course they don't ....have you every has a piece of tin come in contact with your fillings ....your saliva, the foil and the metal in your filling act like a battery.....zap:silly!:
It's the same sensation you get when you would test a 9v battery on your tongue.

OT..has anyone ever taken a LifeSavers Wintergreen candy and chew it in the dark in front of a mirror....it sparkles like static electricity

If you wants \'em dead, you can use that expanding foam stuff in the obvious spots they may come through. They tries to eats it, but it poisons them. Kills \'em dead!

Not in Iraq it don't - we sealed a wall up and the little bastard ate his way back in -

As for Maine Coons - got one at the house - 2yrs old and already at 20 lbs - and a permanent kitten cause he was fixed to soon. Somedays I really miss dogs.

Ha! Ha! got the little bugger!
got a couple of traps on the way home, set them up with some chocolate spread......
Wham!!
couldn't have been down more than half an hour, excellent

And just in case the rest of 'em send out a search party, I'll leave the traps down for a couple of days

Grats on slaying your mouse..... just make sure word hasn't got out that you have a cool place for rodents to crash or you could end up with a nasty stinky thing crawling out of your walls.

 

[mickc22]

Well I wasn't expecting that!

Well done on catching the little bugger. Always satisfying to see it hanging limp form the end of a trap.

Slightly off topic ( rats this time). I was hunting for some pics of rats for reference for painting Skaven and came across this site of the tale of an American hunting rat in his garage. Makes for amusing reading .....http://images.google.co.uk/imgres?imgurl=http://rat-hunter.com/stories/2008/gi-joe/rat-hunter-gi-joe.jpg&imgrefurl=http://rat-hunter.com/&usg=__EgOqU4LkGNdckxmPl7rU9uRHS3s=&h=320&w=480&sz=37&hl=en&start=1&sig2=wGA_HfVEqdTU160SnW9W4A&itbs=1&tbnid=vGRalXiwmAMHQM:&tbnh=86&tbnw=129&prev=/images%3Fq%3Drat%26gbv%3D2%26hl%3Den%26safe%3Doff%26client%3Dfirefox-a%26rls%3Dorg.mozilla:en-GBfficial%26sa%3DG&ei=dcsgS-mdEYbr-QbBrYyvBg

I put my finger in a mousetraps once, just to see what its like... It hurt..

 

[cassar]

catch a couple of rats alive then starve them for a week or two in seperate containers then put them into one secure container together the rats will fight each other to the death, the victor will then proceed to eat the dead one thus obtaining a cannibalistic lust for other rats it will then when released proceed to kill and eat any and all rats in its vicinity. if you want to catch mice alive try a milk bottle place your bait in the bottle then place the bottle on its side propped up at an angle of 45-50 degrees on a brick or piece of wood so they can climb in once they are in they are stuck as they slip on the glass and cant get out out you can then release them into the wild a suitable distance away or feed them to your pet snake/piranha's:silly!:l

i did that once too, i worked as a trainee in a hardware store and accidently loaded and smashed it on my fingers. tried to look like nothing happened just to avoid making a fool out of myself, but man that hurts!

That was creepy!

Hey, heard a story from a working mate this day about rats of the larger kind.

They have had a problem with very large rats in a factory here and apparently cats weren't sufficient, instead the hunter and prey was rather the reverse. I didn't ask about poison but what they did according to him was to use a trained ferret. It clean swept the place quick and effectively.

Try waking the cat.

You just need the right cat. A while back, we got up in the morning and found some scattered leftover pieces of some sort of creature all over the kitchen floor, blood spatters 3 feet up the wall, and the cat sulking in the corner with a pinched disc in her back. No idea what it was or how it got in, but it got pwned!

(On the other hand, after several months of constant pain from her back healing up, I think the cat's gone permanently loopy!)

Darn encyclopedia salesmen...if it had been a normal burglar, the cat probably wouldn't have gotten hurt.
