.... although i am not scared of them, i want it out ! I have had the patio doors open . and the conservatory... so it must have come in from the garden. It is stuck in here now... i have a wooden floor.. so i can hear when it moves !!!! Wonder if i might be best opening the patio again and shooing it back out through the conservatory !?!? Sue x

Not my Lambrini bucket ! Bit unsure what to do.... its one of those Mexican standoff things. It keeps trying to creep towards the door.... no way is it going out that way... it would probably run upstairs !!!!! Sue x

Sue you have options.....throw the bucket over the mouse....shove something under the bucket to keep it in and take it out. Or get a brush and kinda sweep it out of the patio doors....or at the risk of me being reported to cruelty.....get the brush and whack it one........I wouldn't do any of them by the way....I would just keep door shut....and cry till a man came. Hope that helps :-)

I've had a mouse living in my house for about 8 months,last night it woke me up scrabbling under the floorboards,then the electric junction box tripped out-I don't know if the mouse did it!!! try enticing it out with bird seeds.

If it licks a paw (do mice have paws?) and straightens its eyebrows (do they have eyebrows?) fluffs up its fur and tilts its chin for the piccy...it is a girl mouse....if it puts two fingers (eh? do they have fingers) up behind the dogs head...grins insanely...it is a male mouse!
