We definitely have mice. We've had hints that we might before, but we always ignored them because there wasn't much to go on. Now we have droppings both in the basement and in the kitchen. There's no sign that they've gotten into our food, but I worry about my books in the basement.

Cordelia is now terrified to go into the basement for fear of seeing a mouse. I can't figure out why she's so scared. Mice are annoying, but they're not likely to attack a person. I doubt she'll ever see one down there.

Scott's talking traps and poison. I'm not keen on either, but we have to do something, and I've got no other ideas. I think I prefer traps to poison. They're messier, but the dead mice aren't likely to end up hidden somewhere. Also, even though Cordelia's old enough that I'm not worried about her getting into poison accidentally, I'm still not fully comfortable with having it around.
