When the hay in our fields are cut behind our house, field mice will attempt to retreat inside. We usually use glue boards if we see a mouse.

I called my vet and she happened to be there. I wasn't sure if they had eaten any. I rushed to the vet wearing my pajamas in the middle of a storm!! The main ingredient in the Poison causes the mouse to hemorrage, until death. Firstly I was off to the vet. My husband was calling the exterminator and we didn't know what to expect. They were put on a dosage of vitamin K and did well. No bleeding, no lethargy, they were great!

My husband called me the next morning to look at Millie's poo. It was nothing but green pellets. Very scary. We now have puppy proofed our house and it was much harder than baby proofing it. Such a scare!! Hopefully, we won't see anything else in their poo!
Oh wow! How very scary! I am so very glad that your little sweethearts are ok. What a close call with Millie!
