get out of my kitchen!

Every Autumn after the fields around are cleared we have an invasion of mice in the kitchen - one of the prices to be paid if you live in an old stone building surrounded by fields.

So that's why we have cats? You must be joking they are useless. They catch plenty but always outside where its much easier sport. In the house we have no choice but to set traps. We had thought we were finished with them for this year but this afternoon Trevor looked over to the end of the room to see another of the little b...ers cheekily exploring the newly sparkly worktops! Traps and peanut butter out again - we don't eat peanut butter but keep it in because the mice find it irresistible.
