Throw some dry ice in the tub. Seal the tub. Problem solved. Send the corpses to the local zoo.

Mice mice baby

MICE

I think mice are rather nice;
Their tails are long, their faces small;
They haven’t any chins at all.
Their ears are pink, their teeth are white,
They run about the house at night;
They nibble things they shouldn’t touch,
and, no one seems to like them much,
but, I think mice are rather nice.

The statement said the mice were not separated by sex and were reproducing “uncontrolled.”

There's a hidden lesson here, but I think I will let the readers discern it.

Take them to the cat shelter.

[HYPOCRACY]

Thanks for that.

[Yardstick]

No doubt it was a great plan except for the thousands of mice part.

Falconers could use them; but they buy them already killed and frozen...

[Sirius Lee]

Hate rodents. The dog is useless in that regard, but the cat, with his black fur and soul is a stone cold killer inside and out. Rodents, bunnies, terror to foxes sniffing around the chickens. Just an absolute beast. Good kitty.

[Flaming Conservative]

Yuk. Is the shelter going to neuter and spay? (Eye roll)

[dvan]

Send them to Florida the fed the Pythons.

Speaking of Pythons...

The Mouse Problem

[Scrambler Bob]

Where is the state, with full-autos, to kill all those rabid wildlife?

[spel_grammer_an_punct_polise]

“Need to acquire a few snakes.”

OR feral cats. ;-)

Tyrus on Gutfeld has a collection of reptiles. I’ll bet he’d buy them all!

[samiam5]

He should hook up with one of those childless cat ladies.

[johnnygeneric]

I agree. The article says “The mice were living in cramped, “filthy,” tubs, the New Hampshire Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals said.” I think this pretty much describes their natural habitat.

[Jamestown1630]

People with reptiles who need live food usually buy them as needed. I don’t think he wants to house a thousand :-)

[Mr. Jeeves]

I guess they haven’t discovered his collection of 500 poisonous snakes yet. Finding new homes for those is going to be a challenge... :)
