Usually it works. Guess I'll try cheese for a more traditional last meal.<BR/><BR/>-ellenElfhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/01827436807468320435noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3730801.post-39860461857356627782007-07-02T19:36:00.000-07:002007-07-02T19:36:00.000-07:00I have a cat that brings live mice into the house then sits on them. Cody on the other hand is great at flushing out mice but has yet to catch one. I've had pretty good luck with globs of peanut butter in a live trap and I get the added bonus of chasing my squeamish husband around the house with the captured mouse.Elaynehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02734583197185810124noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3730801.post-70333668639825754242007-07-02T05:53:00.000-07:002007-07-02T05:53:00.000-07:00We had a mouse in the kitchen a couple months ago. I actually saw it once scurry from under the dishwasher to the refrigerator and back. I subsequently found some droppings on a plate in the china cabinet. And then apparently it died somewhere under the dishwasher. There is no way this humble homeowner can move a dishwasher with all it's plumbing and connections, apart from being built in under the counter. So we had to live with the smell of decomposing little rodent for a little while. And then one day it was gone. I would like to think that one of it's relatives took it away for a nice burial, but I suppose it's dessicated bones are just wiped clean at this point and no longer smell. <BR/><BR/>I will send you Ray.
