I was yelling at my husband for buying cheap small garbage bags because every time I opened the kitchen sink cabinet,the bag wasn’t properly in the frame. At bottom of my shopping list Friday I see “mousetrap?” written.
“Why mousetrap”?
“Well,I think I see little teethmarks on the bottom of the garbage bag under the sink.”
Open the cabinet, pull out freestanding metal shelves and everything stored in them (cleanser, Brillo, cascade) and I see a big white paper towel in the corner. I pull the pepper towel and behind it I see piles of mouse poo and the very large hole around the sink pipes. Smart little bastards, they pulled the paper towel out of the garbage and hid their entry/exit space. And their poo.
I have 3 cats. I thought mice were supposed to be terrified of the smell of cats. And believe me, overnight those cats make smells in their litter boxes. I hate to kill things. I’ve been leaving the kitchen cabinet door ajar for the cats, but I think my barricade of metal shelves will prevent cats from getting near the mice. I put paper towels down to catch poo and I’m still finding some. They’re not afraid
