We're infested...again!

But this time, we're infested by mice! Dawn and Daeghan came back to their room last night to find that a mouse had been living in their storage spaces over break. We saw it running around while we were cleaning up its droppings, so the girls decided to buy a trap today (a humane trap, one where they could get in, but couldn't get out). They set the trap up this afternoon. We went to Pokey's tonight, and when we came back, they had caught two mice! They were really small, and we think they might be babies. I was holding the box they were in, showing one of my girls the mice, and then we saw another mouse running around in the storage space! We're infested! Even though they were cute, and would have made nice pets, I had to make them let them go. Poor Steve McQueen and Gus Gus. I hope they don't freeze...

They won't freeze, because they'll come back inside. That's why people kill them. I wouldn't be able to do that, though. I'd probably be trying (in vain) to get the Humane Society to take them or something.
