We've only had one mouse, a baby, that ever came into the house. It wasn't there for very long. Then we had a cricket problem in the basement. And we kept finding dead crickets in the basement until there were no more coming in. Good kitty.
No, no, no.
But I have two more tomorrow... and this one is #2 on my list of exams I don't want to take. #1 is at 8am tomorrow.

Anywho, the snow stopped almost right after I posted my comment about crossing my fingers.
#1 is math. Sorry, Nemo. It's just the one exam that I know is going to take the full 2 hours to take, and I just hate that class. You may now send me to the principal.
More likely they will be compared to the epicness of The Godfather Part III...
I'd take it for you if it wasn't for that dumb snow.
You wouldn't stick out at all!
Not to mention they leave a pee trail for other mice to follow.
I have a Christmas mouse story too. Back in the time when cord wood became as expensive as fuel, we decided to put the Christmas tree on the hearth right in front of the fireplace. We had a fireplace with built in heatalators and apparently we had an additional house guest living in there. When we passed out presents on Christmas we had gotten some candy (chocolate) for my father. When I picked up the brightly wrapped package up I found that one end of the candy box had been chewed completely off and half the candy was gone. I found it funny, my wife, mother and kids did not.
Nemo, are you the girl sitting right behind the old lady? That's kinda how I picture you!
I'm so sorry Nemo, but it had to be done.
Orkin came. It was difficult to follow the technical terminology, so get out those dictionaries.
1. "You have ants in there."
2. "This happens sometimes."
Glad I wasn't the only one. They did a little extra and told me to clean in there, but I can't twist and bend to get in there right now. And there is just no way any food got spilled in and up, anyway. Did my best with general cleaning of the area and little, pointy q-tips.
No more glasses of water ants, but now I think I'm permanently frightened to use that dispenser. Maybe the next fridge won't have one.
Thanks for the support.
Merry Christmas to me.
Have you tried ant bait? We've used it and it works well. It's a couple of dollars at Home Depot. If you're willing to clear out an area of the cabinet, you can leave it up there (I don't think it can hurt cats, but keep it out of their reach just in case) for a few days and see if it helps. You may also want to see if you can find where they are coming in.Orkin came. It was difficult to follow the technical terminology, so get out those dictionaries.
