| We have a mouse in the house..... .....And my 3 YORKIES are afraid of it! thats right.....my YORKIES...who were bred to hunt RODENTS and such....are AFRAID of a teeny, tiny MOUSE!!!!!!!!!!! UGH! I just have to say that its been quite comical considering that I have a disgusting little critter in my home and we cannot kill it! Its a smart little booger.......And I refuse to put any traps up here on the main floor where my little ones are exposed to it. So we have tons of traps in the basement, but its not helping.....GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!

Traps did not work for us either. Have you heard of/tried the electronic ones that you plug into your wall? They let out a sound or something that only affects rodents; guess they don't like it, so they're GONE! We used them and it was amazing.....they were gone almost immediately I've heard one or two people say that they didn't work for them, but it sure worked wonders for us. It's safe to use around all other pets unless you have "pet" mice, hamsters, or any rodent type pet.

I was afraid of the electronic ones b/c of my dogs. I was scared that it would bother them too. I know....I am sooo paranoid! I just may have to run out and get one to try!!!!!!! Just the thought of of one of them squirming across my floor creeps me out, but the sight of my dogs running away makes me laugh my tooshie off!! They went and hid under the bed!

| LOL!!! I think it is good they are afraid of them. The last thing I want is my Yorkie coming to me with a dead one in her moouth!!!! Eeewwww LOL Mandy, I've had some here too, and some made their way to my main floor. I got three of those electronic ones you plug in and have not had one return since!! They don't bother the furries at all.
