Why in the world would fret over killing a mouse?
It's a filthy rat! Kill the nasty thing!
Food for the snakes, gators and snapping turtles down here.We have a creek nearby and Muskrats, which look like rats but with a chubbier look to them.... they are hunted here in Maine.... don't know if it is actually for eating, or for their fur? It probably is 2 lbs.... when I thought it was a rat, I asked my neighbor about it, who is always offering up his gun, to get rid of any verminous creatures or nuisances, like my skunk, of which I told him was my pet, and hell no did I want him to kill it..... I am grateful for him taking care of a pack of coyote that were showing no fear of humans and encroaching our properties near daily... he has a little girl, that they began approaching near daily and he simply 'took care of them'....
anyway, I wanted him to take care of this rat I kept seeing by this vernal pool/creek area, and he was going to do such, but later told me it was a Muskrat, and I didn't need to worry about it being a rat.....
Make one out of a regular trap, an old soup can, and mesh wire. Trap will close, mesh wire will close mouse into the can. Used to trap barn mice this way to use as bait to trap fox.Why in the world would fret over killing a mouse?

Me. I don't like killing anything. The mice are much more afraid of you than you are of them. They only do what comes naturally to them and follow their instincts. There are humane traps that you can use.
Sheeeeesh….. all the post-apoc novels say 90% of Americans will die when the society-ending event occurs --- because they are too sentimental and clueless to be able to kill ANYTHING, either for defense or to eat.
I believe it.
Anyone who spends their time reading post-apocolyptic novelsSheeeeesh….. all the post-apoc novels say 90% of Americans will die when the society-ending event occurs --- because they are too sentimental and clueless to be able to kill ANYTHING, either for defense or to eat.

If you do his spirit will haunt your dreams thoughIf you kill him, can you still register him to vote Democrat???
Use one of those "GLUE PADS" then just chuck him out in the snow...or keep him on the mantle and feed him from time to time...j/k...have no clue what to do with a mouse you're afraid to hurt, I live in an area with field mice and the only folks who have them in their home are the ones who don't have a cat, some of them go int their kitchens at night and turn on the light and it looks like a rodent jailbreak...don't like cats but where I live they are a necessary pain in the butt.HOW CAN WE CATCH THE MOUSE WITHOUT KILLING THE MOUSE?
It's funny that you say that.... the hubby and I have often said, well if the sh*t hits the fan, we have plenty of animals around here to eat... then we spend the next 2 hours arguing over who would kill it, and who would skin it and process it.... neither of us, want to do either..... we are DOOMED! though we could always have my neighbor do it and find something to barter with him, for him to do it!Sheeeeesh….. all the post-apoc novels say 90% of Americans will die when the society-ending event occurs --- because they are too sentimental and clueless to be able to kill ANYTHING, either for defense or to eat.
