Mice

[Malarkey]

just pop them through the old folks homes letterbox and when they spread disease and start to kill the old uns off just blame Boris

Wibble, wibble, wibble. British mice for British jobs. Something in Latin. Huzzah.

“Edible dormice were a delicacy in ancient Rome. They were fattened in cages before being gutted, skinned and stuffed with pork mince, ground pine nuts and garlic and then baked.”

That sounds better pretty good.

Done the humane mice thing myself a while back. Catch mouse, walk about half hour and drop him off.

Thing was back at the house before me, and just to prove it, I dabbed some tipex on his head to be sure it was him.

Don't mind them now though since a healthy mouse population means it's less likely you got rats in the house.

Hang on,

I know it's Derby Day, and back in the day we would be spending the last 40 minutes before kick-off chasing Jacks around Swansea but these are more civil times.

Are you saying you are happy to have some mice in the house because they're better than rats?

Oh, no no no no no no no. That will not do at all. Mice piss everywhere, they mark food as edible by pissing on it so their millions of baby mice know it is edible. They don't mind a few biscuits covered in piss. I, on the other hand, do.

I am open minded, so you can easily change my mind with some good facts. But, they'd better be good.

I'd rather have a mouse, or indeed a rat, in my house than a Swansea fan though. But, I ain't going to act all manly here - if I see a mouse I will jump up on a chair and shout "THOMAS" like the slave woman that was employed in Tom and Jerry's idyllic home.

Mice constantly drip urine where they walk, so you don't want them anywhere near your house.

A cat would sort out the problem.

Cats are vermin too, as far as I am concerned. I used to have a cat when I was 6, and the thing was with me until I was 21. Bit sad when he died. My sister has a few cats, seemingly a new one whenever I visit her, one she spent a load on. Big thing that isn't allowed outside. Lazy and privileged it is, I can't see that sorting out any mice issues. A cat sat on your sofa, giving its arse a good lick. Lovely. No different than a mouse, except the pissing bit I'll give you that.

Your injured mouse will have endured a slow and painful death.
If you can see a few mice, then there are a whole lot more that you can’t see. If there is plentiful food for mice, it is quite likely that rats will also find it sooner or later.

There’s nothing cute and friendly about mice, they carry some horrible diseases and can cause extensive damage. You don’t want the little blighters gnawing through electric cables.

Get some decent quality rodenticide or if you don’t want decomposing mice under your floorboards, get some strong snap traps, baited with peanut butter. I’ve been battling a family of mice living in the walls of the farm office for a few months. I can’t poison them because of the dogs, so trap them. Catch about 4 or 5 a week.

Failing that, try this method…

Your Mouse Gladiator advice has been passed on from me to many people this last few months. They seem a bit squeamish when I explain it.

This is the problem in today's world.

People are just not building up their natural immunities for these things. Ikle mouses have been walking and pissing on human food for as long as humans have stored food. I'm not saying it's ideal, but to pretend we all haven't or don't have a bit of mouse piss or worse (no not him) in our diet is just not realistic.
