I cannot stand the things.

I would appreciate all of your prayers.

I am sorry you are having troubles with mice. I know I would be really upset with them in my house.
I will pray that they will stay away and outside where they belong.
Blessings

Hi there pinkroses,
You are in my thoughts & prayers, as I can understand what a hardship this must be for you. I pray that this will be resolved for you soon, and that all goes smoothly with your transition into your new home. Please do keep us posted, and please take care.
Sincerely, Trish

Thanks a lot for praying for me.
It seems like every time I turn around something else is going on that shouldn't. :( pinkroses
My thoughts and prayers are with you.
Mice are so common in older homes..and it is so difficult to get rid of them and find all their access points (they can squeeze through such small spaces).
I had mice in my previous house. My cat wasn't much of a mouser, but he would occasssionally leave a "present" on my bed. *omg* At the time he was showing his age and I knew catching one was a major accomplishment for him. The sad eyes and "why are you getting rid of the present I worked so hard to get for you" made it only slightly less disgusting when I had to dispose of his it. :o
Take care

I know cats will do that..
Don't have any pets
Since we are soon moving to the country we have been thinking on getting 13 inch beagle dog.
I hear that they are good at keeping things like that away.
Hopefully in our new home we won't have any.
I would be happy if I never saw ; or heard another one for the rest of my life !!
Oh, that was cute about the cat ;
Guess he thought you shouldn't have gotten rid of it !
I found on my bed where they had been too. :eek:
Ugg.

Most people I know who have had mice are in older homes. Although the older homes were built solidly, they had a lot more nooks and crannies where mice could eventually get in. I'm sure you won't have a problem in your new home.
Take care

I have problems with mice from time to time. We live next
to an open field and they come bother us once in awhile. We have gotten use to where we can set the traps and get them.
I let DH take them to the trash...... yuk! That job isn't for me.
Beagles are great mousers! My cat alerts the dog. Then the beagle takes over and the cat takes a nap!! HAHAHAHAHAHA!
Also, it would help in the house to go around and check for ALL nooks and crannies of entry. Caulk or somehow physically block those holes. The little guys can squeeze through the tiniest of holes. DH and I live surrounded by woods. The field mice are a "hazard" of rural living. Again, Beagles are good mousers, molers, possum chasers, etc. :) I strongly suggest getting that beagle.
