With no triggered traps in 2 days and a total mouse-skull count of 15 I removed the traps and thought the mouse problem had disappeared. Â Later that day while craving cereal I saw the mice had returned and were eating my Raisin Nut Bran. Â I replaced the traps and the death count is up to 18. Â I fear the rodents and my family may be beginning some primitive form of trench warfare.

The death-march of progress
After a box of flour spilt in our cereals cabinet, we’ve had a bit of a mice problem which called for the old standby of Victor Mouse Traps. Â Knowing that we’ve tried this before, I though they may get the hang of it as depicted here. Â I left for the weekend shortly afterwards and when I returned, saw on the cereals cabinet an evelope written on the back “Body Count” with 11 hash marks on it. Â Thank God evolution’s slow.
