I've got a small one around here somewhere. Unless I tossed it out.
Here's some info you might file under Shrew Control. The peanut butter
laced with honey is a winner. I bought a Creamy jar of Skippy (maybe)
that advertised having honey already included. It's aroma filled the
kitchen tonight when I placed a healthy dab onto the mouse trap tab. I
was thinking this just might entice the stinking shrew that I watched run
across the kitchen earlier today (earlier yesterday I suppose). I placed
the trap up against the cabinet adjacent to the refrigerator, as that was
where it had come from.
30 minutes later, one dead mouse.
I feel better now.
Robert
