Has anyone tried to get rid of mice in a human way?
For some reason last year was a terrible mouse season. I guess it wouldn't matter if I just killed them all but I am a Buddhist and we don't kill things. So now I am sharing the house with 3 dogs and about 50 mice. Which wouldn't be a huge problem except that they really make a mess.

So I have spent about $150 on sonar devices. I plugged one in yesterday in the kitchen and it really did help. So I bought two more for my other 2 rooms 0 I have a really small house.

I feel sorry for mice. They seem to be the main food source for just about everything out there. And I don't want to hurt them but I just can't have them running all over the house.

I can't just dump them outside because it is too cold out there. They would die from the cold.

OMG. Just gross. She lives with 50 mice because she can't kill them and doesn't went them to get cold.

OTOH, wonder if she supports unlimited abortion????????

Obviously did not read the instructions. You are not suppose to use a sonic device in a home that has pets.  Way to torture your dogs DUmbass.

She is a Buddist.  :thatsright: :mental: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao: :lmao:

In the meantime the mice are running all over the house pissing and crapping on her food and kitchen. That sounds really healthy.

Don't worry they are eating all your roaches. :loser:

Exactly. I have two semi-feral cats who occasionally bring us big dead rats they have killed by the pond. This is the only time I see rats in or around my home.

Even my Oreo, who will be 14 years old soon, would keep that home mouse-free.  Oreo wants to kill things, but we don't let her leave the house.  With our luck, she'd bring back deer ticks.

When I lived in AZ, I had a female cat who would bring me damaged and highly pissed off rattlesnakes.

My parents lived in a rural area and kept outdoor cats to take care of rodents. One was so successful she also caught cottontails.

How sweet. She was really looking out for you, wasn't she.

We had a monster Maine coon that ran out of mice and went rabbit hunting. He'd bring back babies and juvenile ones and proceed to disembowel them alive as long as he thought he had an audience.

If there is no food for them, they wouldn't be there. Think about that for a minute and try to imagine what this place must look like

16. I disinfect more than anyone on the planet.

I'll take that with a grain of salt since it's coming from someone who lives in a rodent infested shithole.

23. They go everywhere.

My next step is to start disinfecting everywhere.

In some ways it is kind of funny. I don't think my house has ever been cleaner. I am cleaning constantly.

So ... killing mice is not OK but killing bacteria is?

What an idiot and coward.
Plus, as the OP points out, I'll bet you anything she fully supports abortion.
It's getting to be what I refer to as "Cockroach season" where I live. While, as a Christian, I don't like killing things, and don't like being cruel to animals and even insects if I can help it, that didn't stop me from getting a dozen roach baits and setting them up throughout my apartment's kitchen and bathroom a couple days ago.
If killing those vermin is the only way to keep them from becoming an infestation in my apartment, then so be it.

Don't waste your time with those Lowe's roach treatments. There's some syringes with what I call "peanut butter on Amazon that wiped out the overflow from the neighbors next door

Nobody can be this stupid.  If a mole, I apologize, but this retard is just too far gone.  You kill, you live, it's called survival a$$butt, get used to it.

Hey, don't knock the simple ways like that. I went with baits because I've found them successful in the past:
Last year, I had a rather bad infestation in my apartment around the same time of year, to the point that hardly a day went by without me seeing one of those little devils. I got some similar roach baits, put them in my apartment (In the same spots where I now have my current baits), and it wiped them out pretty much overnight.

We tried all those regular grade baits with no success. Even bombed it several times with zero effect. I must've been dealing with mutant roaches or something judging by how they were living next door. Glad it worked out for you!

There is only one (marginally sociable) solution.
