I just trapped a mouse under a box top.
Now what do I do with it?

[gram-man]

kick the mouse??

[JBetty]

It's not a baby, g-man.

[gram-man]

so?? just a lil harder to hit...right??

[JBetty]

Having never kicked a baby, I wouldn't know.

[KrisNYG]

Can you slide some cardboard under the box so you can pick it up and get it out of there? Nicely done!

[MeOmYo]

put a cat in the box?

[georgi]

I'm with Kristen. Slide something under it, get it outside a distance away from your house, and then release the little bugger!

[Jambear]

stomp on the box.

[JBetty]

The box top is to a carton of paper, so it's pretty big.

I do like the cat idea, but there's no cat here at work.

SOP is to release it outside

So it can find it's way back inside?

Kill it. It will come back inside if you put it outside. My parent's exterminator told them that the mice don't usually live in the house they come in to get food and bring it back to their vermin nest.

Agreed. It's not pleasant, but you'll be dealing with it again if it's just released. And there are plenty of mice in the world. One fewer will not be missed.

[JBetty]

I have no problem with the little bastid going to the great gig in the sky, but I don't want to be the one to send him there.

[CTMuleman]

Put it in the bookkeeper's office!

[Jambear]

cardboard under the box then stomp it ya big sissy.

a good mouse is a dead mouse.

[JBetty]

This is an awesome idea!
I think I'll keep you.

I prefer the freezing method. Still freezing where I am.

[Tim the Beek]

Trouser mouse?

If I ever catch mice (cats usually get 'em first), I take 'em off to the woods, making sure I've crossed at least one stream/brook/river.

[Terrapin Station]

Were talking a mouse right..not a nyc rat.

Grab it by the tail and walk it outside sissy.

[KrisNYG]

This x a billion.

I wouldn't want to kill it either. Find a maintenance dude or something, this should not be in your job description.

[Ginger Snap]

I have a couple mice I can't get rid of- come catch mine please. Or someone lend me their cat.

[JBetty]

UC has a cat he'll be happy to "loan" out.

[gram-man]

KICK IT!!

[JBetty]

It's gone.

[SunshineDrummer]

Off to the great cheese shop in the sky? Or flung across the parking lot?

[JBetty]

Kind hearted foreman took it next door.
The rest of them will not be having much fun this weekend.

Don't share this story with Claudia. "Have a Heart"'d

[JBetty]

Thanks for the tip that I'm going to ignore.

[JBetty]

Gonna wait until she's good and sloshed, too.

[KrisNYG]

Get some pics of it with Little Jerry!

[KrisNYG]

edit <Lil Jerry>

[JBetty]

Once again, Lil Jerry does not accompany me to work on a daily basis.

[Jwheelz]

he seems to be more of an evening and weekend kind of guy anyway...

No, for when you make Claudia cry.

Yup - 6:45 rise & shine just doesn't work well for him.

You don't even know the half of it.

I was thinking of something like this that could be used to go along with several others' ideas.

[PieDoh]

Microwave it...

[nancykind]

ask Nancykind

he's expecting my answer to be snap its fucking head off but that only works with a TRAP!

i have trapped them under a colander, slid cardboard underneath, duct taped the colander to it and drove several miles before releasing.

Oh. My. God. I had my dad's and he wound up taking it away when I was about 14. I LOVED that thing! Where do I get a new one?

[Lostsailr]

I bought one with the first $ I ever earned...
