Mouse in the House
Posted by vicky ford on June 5, 2006
Q: i placed a small cream egg by the side of my bed and then a few days later i went to go to bed and found all the paper in a pile but the egg gone how could it of carried this there was no mess other than the paper so it could not of ate it there and i cant see how a mouse could carry it! so i placed a kit kat there and now the same has happened to this, i am starting to freak out and am now sleeping on the sofa. have you any idea what it can be if it not a mouse, if not how can i find out, or catch it!! help!!
A: Take a good look at those papers from the candy. If it's a mouse, there should be tiny teeth marks on the paper where it chewed off the wrappers. Mice are quite good at carrying food in their mouthes so unless the candy is quite large, they probably carried it away. Hope this helps so you can sleep on your bed again. Why not get a live trap and catch the little free-loader? Good luck.
