I live a bachelor lifestyle, so I have no food in here. Just alcohol. I hope the mouse figures that out and goes away. I should get some traps in case it doesn’t. I hate killing animals but there’s no practical alternative.

    I hear ya. I live trapped under my sink and got like one a day for weeks and released outside (rural 100 yds from the house in tall grasses). Thought I’d scored a happy wife no longer asking me to kill the countless mice and didn’t have to kill.

    I ended getting kill traps and killed maybe three, because it was the same mice just returning I’m sure via the magic animals do.

    I would probably disagree with the idea that actual wild release would be a death sentence. I think mice would be just fine, or at least have a legit chance. But alas such things aren’t really feasible anyway in the city, and there’s health concerns transporting that far, and so on.
