Oi Ghost . Post reported

KHALooD, you have a new pet. Give him or her a name .

Leave plenty of food and water down, or s/he may start eating you’re Uno .

If you’re not keen on you’re pet, please don’t kill him of her – find a humane way of extracting

Re: mouse in the car!!

ok, i'll call him "Smarty" ..
On my first time i didn't use a trap, i didn't want to hurt him...
i used mice glue and there was surprise he ate all the chesse and left nothing, he didn't even step on the glue (don't know how???)...
that was fine with me but... he peed on the glue???? then he asked for a war, and i'll give him his war...

you want the box type trap instead of the snap type. best way is to powder the floor etc. this will show where he is running. trap put accordingly.

Re: mouse in the car!!

Hi
I had exactly this in my cinq it`s all very well saying don`t kill it etc but if it eats through your wiring and fooks your car you`d be well annoyed,I know of a chap with a land rover that had a mouse that bit through the wirring loom in 50 places
Catch it any way you can even if that means the end for poor mousey(sorry guys but till it happens to you it`s easy to say),I stripped my interior out even the dash and no sign so i set four traps at different positions in the car and finally caught it and set it free,(mice love chocolate by the way)
Good luck
Adrian
