    You probably don't have "a" mouse.

    You're doing all the right things. Give it a few days.

    Rats never come in ones.

    There is probably a brood. It's is the time of the year.

    It is springtime. I always got rats in April at the old house. Sometimes it was until June when I got all the buggers.

    Keep setting the traps, and watch out with poisons and pets.

    Mouthy, that's awful! I found this do-it-yourself forum and there are some good ideas there.

    I hope you can get rid of it. Call the landlord, too.

    I did tell the landlord BFD.. They both hubby & wife came over ,They looked to see where it could get in. Couldnt see where, this is a VERY SMALL place.He was the one to set the trap. I spent 11.00 bucks for all this stuff to kill them, I have only lived here since april. But will move if I get theses things. I cant sleep with rats !!!! Thanks kids! for your help.

    I planted a house in the middle of a field, probably hadn't had humans on it since the Indians! So I got a bit overrun with them. I would be watching TV at night and they would sit against the wall watching me! One made a nest in my grandma's couch and had babies. Luckily I have not had one in this new house.

    I did the traps with peanut butter, but I put it farther down the trap so they had to step on it to get to the PB.

    I also did the glue boards. Got 2 at once! The bad part about that is they will chew their legs off to get free. So you need to get the boards up quickly. I put a papertowel over the mice and hit them with a frying pan.

    If you don't have cats you could continue to do the poison too. But if the cat gets a hold of the mice they will get sick too.

    Good luck, I hate the filthy buggers!

    Setting up bait and waiting with a .22 is great fun.
