Meece Overload!
Well... we've managed to "capture" seven mice this week. So much for my comment that the humane traps wouldn't work. The mice seem to be queueing up to enter them and feast on the pieces of Twix lodged inside. We've been depositing mice in a local field all week - seven of them, no less. Two massive/fat specimens (clearly well fed - by us), two babies and the remainder medium-sized. Four were trapped in the garage, to be fair - which is effectively an out-building (albeit attached to our kitchen and there is no other "through road" to the back garden) and it is easy for them to slip under the external garage door. It is possible that they're making their way into the kitchen/downstairs hall (where we found the other three) by this route. Hard to tell. I haven't taken any photos of them, as they looked terrified enough - and I didn't want to make matters worse by use of a camera flash! My husband won't go near them, so muggins has to do the donkey work/field deposits.
