Mice in my house

allen-iverson

there are mice in my house and it's an antique house and I don't really want to harm them.
I'm allergic to cats so I can't get a cat nor do i want to care for one.

how do I get rid of these mice?

P.S.

can we turn alliance war forum into the new yahoo answers?

sincerely yours,

with love,

with appreciation,

with my heart of hearts,

One time, I wanted to figure out if there were any poisonous spiders in my state, because a spider crawled in my sock and bit me. Sorry about how long that story was just now. Anyway, I found a Yahoo! Answers page, and I had to bookmark it for posterity. Two of the answers:

* I've never had Conneticut house. But I have had spiders in my house before. Don't worry, you are safe.

* no spider wont hurt you on less you bother them but the black widow has a really strong poison that could kill you in 5 minute tops or 10 it deepens how heathy you are

And that's why I'm voting yes on your proposition. Walk in Christ's light, brother.

That story was so fricking long dude please.. TLDR...

I heard YAhoo! was going out of business and so Yahoo! answers may no longer be a thing so i feel like we should maybe turn alliance war into the official new Yahoo! answers.

thanks.

Currently walking in Christ's light,

Anyone remember ask Jeeves?

I was expecting a Templar thread. You let me down.

I prefer snap traps, baited with peanut butter. Put them along the walls that would make sense for high-traffic mouse commuting. Check them twice a day. Live traps are more humane, bit also a pain in the arse. Some hardware stores loan/rent live traps, that may be an option for you.

Glue traps are cruel and just horrible. Please don't let anyone talk you into using them. I lived in an apartment complex that used those, and saw some heartbreaking things. And I'm not one to give much sympathy to vermin.

I'm told if something comes into your house, it will be bad for them. Your mouse problem should take care of itself.

Mice have facial expressions which communicate their mood to others.

The mouse is a lie there are only Skeevers!

If this is a serious post (I expected something about templars ):

• there are traps that catch mice alive
• strong scents could scare them away, also something that smells like a cat... just look that stuff up on the internet
• as a general rule, don't leave food somewhere where they can get it (same goes for your waste actually, need to make it mice-proof)

I'd also try to block their paths around the house, but since it's an old one you'd probably never find all of them. Also if there are already nests and stuff and they feel kinda comfortable as your housemates, not much you can do if you don't wanna kill them.

Did you read this Allen? Nests!!! You could have hundreds of the little guys by now. Here's what you do:
Find the nest
Using a broom and dust pan sweep them into a trash can
Run the trash can outside and empty it before they all crawl out
Wear loose fitting clothing as they will probably run up your arm.
Go back inside and sweep the remaining mice/escapees into the trash can
Repeat until they are all gone.
Predator leap the hive mother if needed.

Buy a Glue Trap

and Cooking Oil

Catch with Glue Trap; take away from your house..pour cooking oil on them to free them...Don't try and pull them off without the cooking oil first either..you'll just rip them apart.

Try casting blinding flashes to dodge their bites. OH wait!

A new house is a fresh start and that sounds like it could be just what the doctor ordered

But to be sure, we might wanna change this forum over to WebMD

You could get a hairless cat.. I have one of those. She's awesome.

You know the templars are feeling guilty when they think completely unrelated threads are referring to their Radiant Destruction spamming

allen-iverson

Wanna get rid of them with out harming.... well be thing I can think of is get a non-leathal trap or something and use peanut butter as bait to lure them in and whent here caught releases them in a near by woods or something.
