You could always learn to live in harmony Moe!
try a siamese cat – they purr really loudly, the meoww would wake the dead, and mice would be just for starters – Its all the other birds that I would worry about finding under the kitchen table
If thats too much I’m afraid a good old mousetrap that kills is the only solution. My record is 5 in an hour and a half but ….
A quick update. The traps have been empty for ages now, so I assume the meeces have stopped visiting. However, today I moved some books that were tightly packed on a shelf in the living room and found a store of bird seed. Amazed at how the mouse could get behind the books. The strange thing is that there is only one seed in this stash, and my bird seed container has loads of different seed in it. So, what has happened is that the mice have come into the utility room to eat the vegetables, have realised that I [stupidly] kept birdseed on the window ledge by the back door, cherry picked their favourite seed and stored it away. Most of the time the bird seed container had the top on
so they must have taken it when I’d forgotten to put the top on. Now they’ve gone, I’m feeling a bit Beatrixpotterish about them again. One mouse who took up residence in the S.O’s flat for a while chewed some green buttons off a dressing gown that was hanging on a door, and moved them to her nest in the sofa. That was quite cute. We still killed her, though……
