I live a bachelor lifestyle, so I have no food in here. Just alcohol. I hope the mouse figures that out and goes away. I should get some traps in case it doesn’t. I hate killing animals but there’s no practical alternative.

    I use the snap traps, although the last time I did that, I had to execute a few mortally wounded mice, which was not fun. So many mice were coming into my old house that I resorted to rat poison there (I don’t expect things to get that bad here) but glue traps are over the line for me.

      Check out the electric mouse traps. Mouse walks in, there’s a snap sound, mouse is instantly dead. Worked well for me

      We’re on the same side. I had a mouse in the 3rd floor of my first apartment building, and had to humanely put it out of its mystery when I finally caught it. ☹️ I haven’t used a glue trap since then…
