Its the time of year when all the mice come in from the fields. Some of
them end up in my attic. And as usual I went around and topped up the
mouse poison.

Our trap is doing a busy trade at the moment. Conventional "Little Nipper".

Ok, it was a bit icky when the mouse was caught by the foot, and had dragged
the trap with it while it crawled to a hiding place, except the trap
wouldn't come. I was a bit worried that as I pulled the mouse out by said
foot that it might come off, but it didn't, and I was then able to dispatch
the creature by other means.

Currently baited with tesco value chocolate, melted onto the spike.
