In my house I've recently been overrun with mice. When I say overrun I mean I have found evidence of at least one mouse being present oweing to the fact that something has taken a taste for my shoes. In my view even that's one mouse too many so I set out a humane mousetrap.
This morning I heard a scuffling noise inside it and found that I'd caught the little guy. I'd heard that mice will find their way back to your house if you release them within two miles (rat nav?) so I took him with me in my car on my way to school. It must have been a strange sight for anyone driving past: me leaning out of my car and releasing this little rodent. Possibly they thought I was a pigeon fancier who was too tight to buy actual pigeons so was making do with mice.
I'm setting the trap again tonight but am hoping that there won't be anymore visitors. I've even put a cliched lump of cheese in it.
