mice are the bane of my damn existence. the only time they havent vexed me was when i got a couple of rats. i dont know if they just left, or if there was war.
soon as the rats were gone, the mice came back.

sounds like a big win for me. if it cuts into the squirrel population around here, i'm golden.
