I always buy traps that kill in a humane way.

It is only meant to hold the animal captive.<br /><br />I've no idea whether a sonic vibrator that drives away rodents is available in this part of the world, but will try to find out.<br /><br />I think where I erred was to not have taken the hot weather into account and to have kept the mouse captive for too long.<br /><br /><br />@Nomad: C'est la vie, indeed. :)Sidhusaahebhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08428201823375343016noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30556104.post-40067421415428087112010-05-21T08:26:36.475+05:302010-05-21T08:26:36.475+05:30I think I know how you feel... a similar thing hap...I think I know how you feel... a similar thing happened to me as well once.

Dearie me, poor wee mouse!!....sometimes our good intentions don't always turn out that way :(<br /><br />I'm trying to imagine what your mouse-trap was like...was it sort of more like a cage?...traditional ones tend to snap shut and basically kill any rodents...<br /><br />When I had one in my place a couple of years back, I opted for a sonic mouse vibrator - it plugs into the wall and a high pitched noise reverberates around the walls and chases away any wee meeces, hopefully without any harm being done....and b.t.w. it works!!<br /><br />It's easy to eat chicken etc, because a)we're natural carnivores<br />b)we're not personally involved with the animal ie it's not the family 'pet'<br />c)we're not directly involved in killing it.<br /><br />Think I'd find it very difficult to eat an animal if b) or c) was the case, but o/w there's always the free-range option, where available.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
