Well, we have had mice in the garage all winter. One ran across my foot when I was taking the garbage out (it had been behind the trash container we set out for the garbagemen), and I admit I shrieked, but it was mostly from surprise, not from real fear. Bruce got some traps that are white plastic, and when the mice go in, the trap springs and kind of crushes them. They aren't nasty, just kind of contorted, and you can reset them right after you dump the bodies into the trash. (We use peanut butter as bait.) I am not anti-mouse as long as they stay OUT of my space and my books/papers. They did try to eat books in the garage. Sigh.
