I found a humongous mouse trap at Wal-mart, brought it home to an eager Jared, who promptly perched a chunk of string cheese on it and strategically placed it below the oven (which is still pulled away from the wall) Last night while I could not sleep from an ill-timed coke I heard a loud snap! I ran to the kitchen, fired up my least dim flashlight (they're all almost dead ALL of the time) and peered into the rat's lair. The trap had snapped, the cheese was gone. But....no mouse in sight. He is probably laughing as he dies in the wall with the taste of his last good meal on his lips.

A sneaky mouse you've got on your hands. Of course it wouldn't be that easy. The sage continues!
Tell Jared that Thomas uses Peanut Butter. It is more difficult for them to get off of the trap without setting it off and mice LOVE peanut Butter! Mice don't seem to mind if the Peanut Butter has salmonella either!
The salmonella could help ensure his death! Where are those recalled crackers I was feeding my kids...?
It looks like it is turning into a battle of wits!!! That is one clever mouse.
