Paper towel, trap and ex-mouse become landfill.
For all you children, Victory traps, still the industry leader, are that cheap. The ones with the big yellow plastic "cheese" trigger are more fragile. The plastic spur distorts under pressure. Besides, peanut butter is a better bait.
You have enumerated the differences between a BS and BA. I have a deep seated suspicion that all these snowflakes are getting Journalism, Visual Arts and Education degrees.
LOL.
If the TS does HTF, anyone without a firearm will be useless.
I get the feeling there's a whole bunch of them that would be worse than useless if you gave them one.
Wow. I live in the suburbs, on a wooded lot. One night 3 young raccoons came in the cat door. That was fun getting them out. One kept coming back for a month or two for the cat food. Then there were the two Carolina flying squirrels that got in over time. Plus a few chipmunks that the cats dragged in that weren’t really dead. Chase one of those around for a couple days ... SIGH. The one baby rabbit was cute. The blue-tailed lizards that lose their tails are pretty common in my house. Only had possums and copperhead snakes in the yard, not in the house. The cats usually kill any voles before they bring them inside to show off and eat. The deer don’t bother me unless I pop out the door and scare one that’s 10 feet away. That’ll wake you up.
One of my kids college roommates was in the bathroom last year when a section of the floor, which had rotted from water leakage caved in.
Since it was only a few weeks before the end of the term, the college told the boys to deal with it.
They survived just fine.
Lol at “wood shampoo”! I’ve never heard that expression, and I find it hilarious.

You don’t shoot raccoons?
I remember those days. Just before Christmas break, my car wouldn’t start. 5-10 inches of snow on the ground. The car needed a new ignition switch. I lit a charcoal fire next to me for warmth and proceeded to try to fix it. I couldn’t so then I moved on to learning how to hotwire the car. That took a couple hours.
Funny part was, my mom had arranged for me to drive the daughter of some friend of hers home for break.
She got all weird and huffy when I hotwired the car to start it.
My late MIL was in university in WWII. She told me that by early 1942 most of the men & all of the cadets were off to war.
Tragically, her boyfriend was killed in a late night car wreck on his way to the Navy reception station.
“You dont shoot raccoons?”
I’m in a suburban neighborhood about a mile outside the Richmond, VA city limits. A few wealthy neighbors have the acreage necessary to discharge firearms. I do not.
I hate mice, but this is ridiculous. I really despise my generation.
BTTT
I've had cheese stolen from the trap. Peanut butter they lick at and keep trying to get more until it finally snaps.
Due to a dead battery in college, I push started my car for 2 months. I would try to park on an incline. I got so good at it that I could even start it in reverse!
My ‘65 Ford pickup blew a gasket in the carb and filled the intake manifold with gas an inch or two deep. I was living about 5 miles out of town at college. I called my dad and he told me to take my fire extinguisher and head for the parts store. If it catches fire, stay low when I open the hood because the flames will roll out by the hood. I laughed and said would you tell my older sisters to do this? He said no, you’re a man.
That’s a favorite. When I was in corrections we also had the Maglite Massage.
Don’t forget the Vibram Facial.
