A moment of silence, please, for Mighty

Anyone expecting to see a picture of our first dead mouse, I'm sorry. I took one, and was going to post it, but Omer doesn't want any rodent snuff pictures on the blog. If I don't respect his wishes, he may not empty the RatZapper next time.

I was disappointed this morning that the RatZappers were empty. I really expected to catch one the first night. But when I checked them this morning, no red lights. A few minutes ago, though, I opened the door under the sink to get a garbage bag, and actually shrieked when I saw the light blinking. I continued to shriek while calling for my husband and looking for the camera.

I feel bad. Poor little guy didn't even get to eat any of the food, it was all still there.

Definitely a fan of the RatZapper. Mighty slid right out into the garbage can, no mess. I hope it was as quick and humane as the company claims.

HOORAY for the RATZAPPER!!!
Yes it is such a great device. And no the mice never get a chance at the food..that is unless your batteries go dead. Glad to hear you have one down....

So far, no more. Is it possible that we just had one mouse, or is that wishful thinking on my part?

That's a lovely sink in the photo (with green tile behind). Is it new? If so, what brand? Where did you find it. Thanks!

Thanks! It is new. It's a Kohler Brockway with Connack faucets. We got in online from Home Depot, although I wouldn't advocate doing business with them. Other places sell it too.

In my experience it is rarely ever just one...maybe 2 or 3..if you don't get any bites for a few days, perhaps they got the hint.

There is never, in my experience, just one. Sometimes you'll go a few weeks without an incursion, and think you are safe. Then they re-appear. Sorry to be a downer, but keep those batteries charged!
