Fauna

I was confident that the poison I put down recently had got rid of the mouse problem. I was wrong. I saw one of the little sods in the front room yesterday evening. I shut the door and put a trap down. Fat lot of good that was. The rodent ran across it about four times without activating it. I tried throwing a safety boot at the creature, but missed each time. I tried spraying it with various household cleaners, but to no avail. It's now time for drastic measures. I'm off to the big hardware place in the shopping mall later on, to get something more high-tech.
