Last year, we had a HUGE mouse problem. I don't know WHAT happened. I mean, we live on 3 acres with farmland behind us, but never have we had mice this bad.
One night, I was in bed, and I could HEAR them crawling around my floor. I was sooo freaked out and I basically hid under the covers. Well, I finally peek over my bed and I saw THREE mice quickly run out of my closest and under my bed.... I started wigging out! Jackson was up all night too trying to get them, I'm surprised he never caught one. He's my little hunter for sure.
It was terrible! We finally set a few traps in my closet and in the middle of the night I heard SNAP! and then SNAP! again. Oh my. They finally all went away but I was terrified and slept on the couch a few nights.
Also, one time I heard Jackson barking in the kitchen so I finally go over to investigate. There was a little baby mouse and he looked hurt possibly, or really sick, and surprisingly, Jackson never touched it. But he kept a watchful eye over his small movements, the mouse could barely walk. So I got a little cup or whatever, and waited for him to crawl into it, and then we brought him outside. Jackson guarded over him patiently, like he knew he was sick or something. I put him in some sand/dirt we have outside and the mouse ended up dying.
