Just killed mouse with glue trap and PETA says I'm inhumane

Believe me, I know some very strong dudes not afraid of anything .. beside mice.

They have a nasty bite with their strong teeth. Could eat an ear or a nose off.

I don't see why they can't just eat the ear or nose growing out of their collective back.

It's true, there are real problems in the world. But I'm a bit squeamish, I guess.

I'm going take a wild swing here and say it was one of those 'live capture' traps. I'm surprised you found the little guy alive. The one and only time I tried that, the mouse was very literally scared sh**less - then died, probably of a heart attack. It was really disgusting and I felt awful.

Even though this area of central NJ is about as suburban as you can get (green space. Um, sure, we got some of that), I think the mice are more of the country variety. You know, chewing on a long stalk of hay with a tiny corn cob pipe. They're not like those big city mice. When THEY get . . . arrested, they just ask for their lawyer and chill.

Actually have caught 3 mice with those traps. Would have been four but one chewed a hole in the trap box to escape, Shawshank style.

I wouldn't deny that there are 'real problems in the world', and PETA seem mad to me, but I'm just squeamish. Just a shame I couldn't work out exactly where Boris Johnson's house was (not Downing street, his original house...I believe it's within mouse-carrying distance).

There are mice (they might be friendly) and then there are RATS. Kill the latter with the utmost prejudice.
