LOL<br /><br />Although we don't have a mouse problem (too many cats), I am filing away that xmas light tip.

Mice are nocturnal and stay away from light. I use the rope lights (the xmas kind) and place them under the rig. A timer is used to turn them off and on. Haven't had any mice in the rig so far. Knock on wood. <br /><br />Since it's xmas season they shouldn't be hard to find. The LED bulbs are more expensive (about twice as much) but last a lot longer than the regular type.<br /><br />This method has been used by several rv'ers that I know with excellent results. <br /><br />Good luck<br />MacMachttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01744462622930920821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-54414753816796090432011-12-14T23:22:09.499-06:002011-12-14T23:22:09.499-06:00Murphy the shrimp--yes that must be what it was. ...Murphy the shrimp--yes that must be what it was.

I don't think I've trapped a total of twenty in all of that time. It is odd how they seem to come in groups however.

Is that 'toaster fielding'? <br /><br />Maybe someone will call the local authorities about the stray dogs before they reproduce and become an even bigger pack. Or they are likely to get hurt by being shot at.<br /><br />Emma looks so clever. Please give her a hug from me. Misty sends Emma sniffs, too. <br />Happy Tails, and Trails, Penny, TXLakeConroePenny,TXhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00260039376684295639noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7774004683471521654.post-58618170121195144312011-12-14T19:53:39.026-06:002011-12-14T19:53:39.026-06:0020 mice, Holy Cow!!
