So my office has had mice for quite a few weeks and as long as they have left me alone I have been fine to leave them alone but in the last few days they have been taking over more and more space and have moved into the office and started to have babies.
On Tuesday I was getting a plastic box of beads out of one of my cabinets when I noticed a nest of paper and thought "this is where those damn mice are living". Well you all know that I am not going to be the one to chase a mouse around the office, I hate to even deal with spiders, (although I have gotten better at that). It is a good thing that a few weeks ago we had a guy named Michael start here and he took it upon himself to take care of the nest.
As he was moving the plastic boxes he noticed that there were baby mice. Just great is what I was thinking. He picked the first one up by its tail and put it in our trash can. He found 2 more and then the serious mouse hunt started. We blocked off parts of the office with cardboard boxes so the mouse would be trapped and after 30 minutes it was .
I am glad to say that Michael killed it. He put it in the trash can and it went home with the 3 babies with Gladys so her 2 cats could have a treat.
Then this morning another one (probably the dad) jumped out of the cabinet and we started the hunt all over again. I am glad to say that this time it was Gladys that killed the thing and it is out of the office.
I am hoping that this will be the last mouse in the office for a little while but you never can tell.
