MICE!


Well the one thing I hate about fall is all the outdoor "critters" are looking for nice indoor digs for the winter. Last night I had a mouse visit. (I like to think it was only one mouse...let me have my fantasies!) Normally I would put out poison in the places that the mice are likely to find attractive, and that would be the end of the problem. But this year I have chickens, and I'm afraid they will find a poisoned mouse, eat it and poison themselves. Oh what to do!

I have several lovely outbuildings. (well lovely for mice anyway) Why can't they just move in them? Yeah I know, they probably are in there too.
