It is enough to make my blood pressure soar! At least Mouse #2 made me almost squeal on my way to a routine doctor's appointment yesterday.
Who would have ever thought that the blue woolen peacoat that I haven't worn in two years would be the nestling spot for Mouse #2? Since the weather was damp and cold ( and my fleece jacket was in the dryer), I decided to wear my super warm peacoat to my appointment. As I reached into the coat closet (right next door to the pantry!!!), a mouse jumped out of the coat, bounced on the floor, and scurried into a closet two doors down. I wanted to scream but knew I would give my hub a heart attack and then what could he do. Well, put out more traps, of course.
So instead of screaming, I jerked the coat out of the closet. Threw it on a bench in the mudroom and grabbed a woolen cape. Not much chance of mice in that flat piece of fabric! Then I was off to my appointment.
This is what I found in the pockets of my peacoat:
What did we do next? Put traps in all the closets in that hallway! No mouse ( mice!!!) yet!
And, yes, we emptied all the tissues out of my jacket and coat pockets!!! Linda

How frustrating. I had one get in my tea towel drawer years ago...It completely destroyed a pair of oven mitts.
ReplyDeletewow, looks like they were making a lovely little nest in there, lol, !!!!!
ReplyDeleteI often got problems caused by mouse, bot of in my home and garden. But since I have cats in my home, all the problem is over.
ReplyDeleteYou need some cats Linda! But are n´t they cute, they definitely wanted to make a nest in your pocket, haha.
ReplyDeleteLinda, I told you there would be more than one...:(JP
