There is a mouse in my room. What do I do?!
    #5007307 -

I heard it a few days ago and then today I saw it run accross my room and under my bed. I thought I wouldn't mind having a mouse, but after seeing it I'm pretty scared. I don't want it crawling on my face when I sleep. :frown: But I also don't want to kill it. If I catch it humanely and set it free, it will die outside, it's freezing here. If it doesn't die it'll probably come back inside. What can I do with this mouse?! :confused:

Put it on a leash and place a piece of cheese just out of its reach. That could be entertaining for a while.

Catch it and shove it in a hamster cage until you find someone elses place to dump it.

Stomp it. Drop a brick on its head. Cut it to pieces with scissors.

Don't worry there is probably a whole family of mice in your house already.

Make a livetrap and...set it loose somewhere.

The mice used to nest in the stove in the summer kitchen where we canned tomatoes. They really stunk up the place when the stove was turned on.

AH! I'm scared...but I don't want to hurt it!  I like animals :smile: even if they are filthy vermin overtaking my house.

This is what I wanted to do originally, but I live in Canada and it's very cold here. Minus 13 celcius now, and gets to minus 30 or 40 later. Will it die?

I know, it's just a common mouse, but when I used to live with my parents, they had a mouse trap once and it's not a nice sight. I know it's supposed to kill the mouse quickly by snapping it's neck, but I can't handle watching the poor thing twitch after dying. It's so sad. :frown:

It'd probably do great in a dumpster.

You're right, do you know where they go? I can't imagine they all find a nice warm house.  :wink:

Try to catch it with a livetrap, and set it outside, a ways away.. where I'm working, it's pretty cold (-20c) and there are mice everywhere. They can hack it!

Trust me on this one, no one ever has "a mouse" - they have mice.

If you see one, you can be sure there's at least 5-10 more that you aren't seeing.

We thought we had "a couple mice", once. Then I got a cat and it started catching 5-6 mice a week for the next month or so. Then...no more mice :smile:

But that only permitted other men with machines to enslave them.
