*UGH!* The Chlorox wipes work well on de-stinking/disinfecting surfaces that they’ve peed on. Get a UV light and play CSI, looking for mouse piss.

The glue traps work well, but should be kept away from dusty areas. The PLASTIC snap-traps are also good; bait them with PB, corn nuts, or sausage (tied with floss, to the trip). For OUTDOOR use, try the coumaric anticoagulant poisons (not warfarin–they find it bitter)…

I’m not sure. :-( That is awful. We were unable to get rid of the mice last winter, but we haven’t had any this winter! We’ve been lucky.

We fought with mice all winter long. We had glue traps and they caught a few. Then we put out those sonic traps and they scampered getting caught on the traps but that only worked a few times. Then we bought poisen which worked. It got rid of them all. I was sitting on our new couch and kept getting this horrible wiff. My husband and I found a hole in the couch and now we have a mouse rotting in our new couch! I love the couch and don’t want to get rid of it. What should we do?

I don’t know how you could get rid of the smell without getting rid of the mouse :-( The smell will probably die down on its own, but I imagine it would take a while. That smell is horrendous.

Is there any way in which i can get rid of that awful smell? i can’t actually get rid of the mouse because its in between some floorboards and some other stuff. God, I jst hate that smell, and it’s in my room, so I had to evacuate it for a few days, now it’s just soo frustrating, I feel like getting a chainsaw and torturing every mouse I see, so could someone please tell me a way to get rid of THAT SMELL?

EEWEY. Colleen just found on in her house the other day and since I now live right behind her I’m freaked out so I stole a bunch of rubber gloves from work and am keeping them in my kitchen just in case.

Rodents is my house is something I am deathly afraid of so I understand your blood curling screams. I hope you can get rid of the mouse problem quick and painless, for everyone’s sake. Attack.

Had a mouse at my office. I decided to either (a) be grossed out or (b) accept him, so I grudgingly chose the latter.

We named him Reginald, and from then on the respect flowed both ways. He only visited at night, and I stopped trying to trap him (attempted the cartoon style tilted-box/stick-on-a-string, to no avail. Again, foiled by cartoons!) Eventually we stuffed any visible hole into the space with steel wool and never saw him again.

BTW love the Levon picture. I think that pose is called “playing the cello”.
