So after MONTHS of trying, rearranging my room and staying up all hours of the night to trap this little furry bastard I finally got him! I won't kill it, I know it's just a rodent, whatever, but I won't kill it. My dog wants to though. But for now it lives. Anyway, I had the idea of leaving th e dogs food bin open, maybe it will fall in and get trapped, so I did that went to bed and woot! Mouse trap! lol 
 
IF I do anything with it I'll take it to a wooded area let it go and let nature move on, the dog would just torture it to death and not even eat it and I don't care for clean up. IN the mean time it sits on my desk until it's fate is decided.

    +1 to that.
     
    But, I commend Chrome in taking it out to the woods vs letting his dog just give it a heart attack.

    I am all for animal rights but there are 2 exceptions; Rats and flying rats, AKA;Pigeons. Kill it with violence. In the future, a standard spring trap mounted on the wall vertically with peanut butter works every time. There is nothing worse than hearing something crawling in the walls when you are trying to sleep.

    (Edited out for the wording of the language/Complaints) They are useless creatures that carry disease and create havoc. I would never put my family at risk for disease by keeping one of those around. Do not let the dog play with it, as the dog may contract some disease. I liked the Ratatouille comment, but this things looks very dangerous to me. The other animal that I call a flying rat is not pigeons but geese. They are endangered, but I wonder why. The produce like rabbits and spread disease like rats. You cannot kill them unless you want to go to jail, really?!??!? If I am driving and they try to cross the street or are just sitting on the road, I gun the gas. The best sound is them hitting the front of my car
    With a thud and then crying out as they fly away. They are all other my office building and parking lot. I am so amazed when people stop their cars and beep their horn while they sit in the road and not move. I say gun the gas. If they don't move then it becomes a Darwin principle event. Anyway, I vote for a mix of bleach and ammonia in a small bowl in the corner of the box. Send me the video when you do. I would kill moles this way. Very fun.

    Believe it or not It don't have much chance surviving in the woods. Was doing some reading n the humane societies sit and withough some warm building to live in it's kinda fubar, but I am a fair man, any chance is better than none, even if the nearest place is quite a few miles away and happens to have a high concentration of owls and falcons in the area......

    So the mouse was released in the woods I talked about, nearest home I can tell is 12 miles away, but he has a LOT of obstacles to go though err...she. It was a female, not sure if it had any youngins, but I will know soon enough i'm sure. Anyway, she may or may not make it, but I gave it a chance.

    If I was you, I would have taken it to the vet and got it checked for any diseases, and if it came back clean, kept it. She would have eventually gotten Stockholm syndrome (I think that's it at least) and would have made a cool pet.

    They are useless creatures that carry disease and create havoc. I would never put my family at risk for disease by keeping one of those around. Do not let the dog play with it, as the dog may contract some disease. I liked the Ratatouille comment, but this things looks very dangerous to me. The other animal that I call a flying rat is not pigeons but geese. They are endangered, but I wonder why. The produce like rabbits and spread disease like rats. You cannot kill them unless you want to go to jail, really?!??!? If I am driving and they try to cross the street or are just sitting on the road, I gun the gas. The best sound is them hitting the front of my car
    With a thud and then crying out as they fly away. They are all other my office building and parking lot. I am so amazed when people stop their cars and beep their horn while they sit in the road and not move. I say gun the gas. If they don't move then it becomes a Darwin principle event. Anyway, I vote for a mix of bleach and ammonia in a small bowl in the corner of the box. Send me the video when you do. I would kill moles this way. Very fun.



    The world could use less people like you sir. Someone who loves killing something because they feel they are superior and have more of a right to live than another creature. killing for no reason at all, that is one of the down falls of mankind.
     That said, I have no problem killing a mouse or other pest intruding my home. (including human beings)
      But to intentionally kill a goose (or any other animal) with my car or any other means for no purpose at all except just to kill it, because you think it should be killed because you can, is wrong in everyway, shape, and form.
     Your reply and way of living disgust me, along with everyone else that thinks like you.

    I have to agree that what you have written is way over the top.  It is one thing to feel that you have to kill something.  I can understand that feeling.  I have red squirrels who moved into my cathedral ceiling and totally ate the insulation out and crapped and pissed so much, it was dripping from the ceiling.  I had to take down the whole ceiling and clean it all out , replace the insulation and put it back up again.  Fortunately it was made out of shiplap wooded planks.  I will not hesitate to shoot a red squirrel now with a pellet gun. 
     
    But what you described is downright torture.  Bleach and ammonia??? I have lost all respect for You sound like a reincarnated Nazi who loved to watch through the peephole of the gas chambers as men, women and children tried to claw their way out while gasping their final breaths.  Was that a Darwinian principle event??
    What you have written disgusts me.  I have other thoughts but I would get censored and rightly so by the Mods.

    Good for you Chrome for not letting being at the top of the food chain go to your head. 
     
    Good Karma
     
    But if you think that was the only mouse in your house I would be very surprised.  Leave the  cover off the container for a few nights and I will bet that you catch a few more.

    I wouldn't say kind....I just gave it a chance. For all I know an Owl or Hawk is already digesting it lol

    People are, well, only Human. We know that. The rule of law is borne out in identifying, condemning, and punishing those who violate the standards on which we all agree. This is exactly what we do in america. -James Inhofe

    I did the same thing with a skunk that was annoying us. Bought a cheap $25 cage from Atwoods plus 2 used burlap bags to wrap around the cage to try and shield from being sprayed. I was lucky and the skunk didn't spray at all, not even after the caged turned over in the back of my truck from stopping too fast. I took the skunk out near some woods and let it go.
