Eliminating Pests
by Rebecca on November 12, 2009
I saw mouse droppings. I turned away and pretended I hadn’t seen them.
Then I remembered. So over dinner, I described their appearance and location to my husband.
We went to inspect, the little dear right on our heels to join our “adventure.”
The mouse droppings began to move.
“What the…”
I got a flashlight for a better look.
The little creatures wiggled and moved their tiny wormy bodies.
“WHAT are those?” he said.
“Ooh bugs! See bugs!” she said.
“Get the vacuum,” I said.
Those little bugs were promptly sucked up and hopefully killed dead dead dead.
We found a noodle nearby. Is that what they were after? The noodle has been destroyed.
And now I feel all creepy crawly dirty- like they’re going to crawl up through the floor at any minute and take over the house.
I think I would have rather had a mouse.
What would you rather experience?

AAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHHH
btw my basement is getting very organized, almost done.
probably 30 more mins of work
and the other day one of the stupid bath toys went bad again, the girls went to play with it and all this mold came coming out. Seriously I am thinking I don’t want bath toys anymore!!
I dunno they both give me the willies! but it it were a mouse I would try to lure him outside to freedom with the promise of fresh cheese and cookies on the back porch daily.
Because I couldn’t kill them. Bugs I can kill.
Get rid of the vacuum bag. They are still alive in the bag. Yuk
