Tue 9 January 2007 - Super mouse
The mouse in my house previously spurned the poison put down for it.
Last week it managed to get bait out of the mouse trap without setting it off.
Then it managed to nibble away at bread that was left hanging in a shopping bag from a door handle. From the trail it left behind, looks like it got onto the kitchen bench, then leapt or climbed into the shopping bag, then ate its way into the plastic bag, then into the bread.
This is no ordinary mouse. I think I’m dealing with a super mouse.
(At least, the evidence left behind says it’s a mouse. Though I quite definitely spotted a rat by the garbage bins. Either way, I’m upping the trap/bait ante.)
