Some time during the night while I was sleeping a freaking mouse was in my bedroom chewing up a tissue. OMG. How freaked out am I? Yeah.

Bedroom - armed with traps

Bathroom - armed with traps

rest of the house - Kanda patrolled (yes the doors are shut to the other rooms)

Tomorrow - go get more traps, get sonic doohickey, get foaming agent and say screw the landlord and fix this myself, get strip for the door to keep them out that way since my front door has a HUGE gap in it.

Okay here's the thing...get some spray insulation foam and fill in the holes. Let it expand and dry, then smooth out the stuff and cover with dry wall putty. Sand it out and paint. Definitely a door strip is in order. Then present the landlord with a bill for cost of goods to fix it all. Also look around the plumbing, and any outlets for major appliances. Fill them in with spray foam as well.

I'd send you Rogue and Vinnie but I"m not sure how much help they'd be.

Vinnie and Pewter are far more prey oriented than Rogue, actually, but Pewter can't see any more, so.

rogue, however, doesn't get as bored with the idea of searching out prey.

She was the one trailing the mice when I had them.

Something to help with the spray foam. Get some wire mesh or something similar. Spray some of the foam, let it expand a little bit then shove the mesh into it and spray it again. That way, the little monsters will have an obstacle if they try and chew threw it along with anything else that might try to go through the foam. I don't know if that will help you depending on the size of the holes they're getting through.
