I had a family of the fuckers living under my floorboards in my house

Got the humane traps sorted and thought I'd got rid till I got a cat, came down the other morning and she was sat next to one with a big hole in its side

She stays downstairs at night now hoping to find another one lol

When I bought my Mk3 Cabriolet and was driving back baby mice started appearing in the passenger footwell. My other half nearly jumped out the roof as we were going along!

Turned out there was a mouse nest behind the dashboard. It was made out of sound deadeding, heater duct, alarm wiring and Haynes manual. It was quite a piece of work. Had to turf the lot out at the side of the road.

Thats good that you have got it

Best to use something like a chocolate covered toffee sweet as the little Łuckers have got to give that a good tug to get it off the trap and that is usually enough to set it off
