We had ac at like yours - littel beggar would hide the evidence in the bookcase, so you never knew if you were going to get a 'suprise' when you took a book out. Had beaks, feet, mangled feathers etc over the years.
Marinated mice - part fill a demijohn with something tasty, lay it on its side at a slight angle and job done. The little blighters cant climb out again and saves you pre soaking the ingredients!!!

I don't think pp needs any encouragement on mad ideas:rotfl:

One of my cats is like that too,
She likes to bring in presents, take them upstairs and leave them under the bath!

over the years we have had magpies, rats, rabbits, hedgehogs, full nests of baby birds and a joint of beef off of next doors worktop!

The other one is neither use nor ornament, spends 23 hours a day sleeping and the other 1 eating.

Delish.. I was thinking pickled mice would be really tasty.. I've got jars and jars of onions and red cabbage and picalilli.. mice would make a nice change!!

Heavenleigh.. do my cats live at your house too? I bet your killer is the little puny one and the slob is the big beat of a cat too.

When we've had mice we don't bait the traps with anything. Just position next to the wall that they run along, and they just stumble into them.

No last meal for the condemned [STRIKE]man[/STRIKE] mouse then? That's well out of order!

Cake will work, but it's difficult to find spare cake.
