Did I say we'd got mice?

In the last couple of weeks, Lisbeth has begun to find signs of mice in the kitchen, the bathroom and in her work/store room at the back of the house. Being a bit of a Buddhist, she doesn't like to kill them, preferring humane traps. She then drives the little captives several miles away before releasing them.

Has she been setting humane traps? Yes. Has she caught any? No. They've been getting the food but not springing the traps. Hence, there has been much discussion (lots of talking practice for me) about what to do. Locals have said that the only sure way of getting rid of them is to put poison down, especially if we go away for some of Christmas.

What else can we do?
