I think of it as helping the natural selection process for mice.

NO ! i let a snap trap do the killing...., BUT ! last night i caught a Tarantula in the kitchen and took it outside and give it it's freedom, i like Tarantulas, they are good spiders, just don't piss them off !

I would...but was visiting my sister this summer and they would trap theirs and release them at the end of their property....

No, I cannot kill a mouse. I have trapped them and set them back out into the woods where they came from and where they really wanted to be.

I let the kittens take care of the mice.

I guarantee those suckers made it back to the house sooner or later. We once dropped of a squirrel from someones house in a park a mile away, TWICE. the 2nd time we marked its tail with paint, and sure enough it was the same one. We had to drop it off 5 miles away to be safe.

Those little bastards have made a motel out of both cars cabin air filters.
Have caught 3 in as many days.
No mercy.
If I toss them in the woods to freedom, they'll find their way right back into the garage.

If one gets in the house, the cats play with it for awhile.
Then it gets bagged and tossed.

My dog, before he passed, was an expert at rodent control.

I used to call him "The Verminator".

Same here. I prefer the more humane approach but I totally understand why people take the glue/snap trap route.

Nala (my female kitten) will kill the mouse.

Simba (the male) will play with it forever if Nala let him.

I came home one night and found them like this. Staring under my stove. The other picture is my child trying to help them out.

Yeap, the mice don't last long in our house either.

 

[pismoe]

depends on how easy it can be done . If I can grab them and toss them into the woods I'll do it . Normally I use traps , snaptraps .
