Only Death Will Do

We've know for a while that we have a mouse in the house. Nathan has seen it once and I've had the pleasure of seeing it twice. We purchased mouse traps when I moved it but have not caught anything yet. Last week I made fish taco's for dinner and somehow forgot to close and put the tortillas away. The next day I notice them on the counter and when to close them and put them away (if they were not dried out) and I saw this.



Apparently the little bugger made a hole in the plastic stuck it's head through and ate as much as he could reach.


Nathan wanted to get the humane mouse traps when we moved in but they don't seem to work very well. I'm all about the the ones that snap shut and cause almost instant death. Sorry to be morbid but the thought of a mouse on my counter is disgusting.
