Calm down Zenny. he said an explosion of chipmunks; obviously a suicide fox took a lot of the community out.

You know that scene from Holy Grail where the killer bunny is jumping at the throats of the knights? The chipmunk was kinda like that, launching across the room from the top of the radiator, aiming for the flashlight in my one hand, when I first started chasing it around the bedroom with the broom. I had the door closed to keep it trapped in the one room. I chased it around and around the room, with all the windows open, just hoping it would eventually veer out one of the windows. Me in my boxers and undershirt all goosebumpy and spooked out but chasing it anyway. Took about 5 minutes and I really wore it down. It was dragging as it slowly climbed up the wall and out the window. Chipmunks don't have stamina.

My wife had stuffed the bathroom rug under the bottom of the bedroom door, and was waiting out in the safe hallway. The kids never woke up.

I wish I had a video of it. I'd post it here. I'm sure you'd all have a laugh.

Actually, it sounds as though you have rather robust chipmunks there in Virginia.

Today I meet with Evil English Prof to discuss my thesis---or, lackthereof. He shot me down. Denied. Wish me luck or I'll be harshin' his buzz or stonin' his bum or whatever it is we are doing today.

Scorching my groove? Yeah, that's it.

lol!

Reminds me of the mouse we finally "trapped" last night. It just drug the trap around the house by one leg. We both just stared at it like...what now? The trap was supposed to kill it. Previously it would just take the cheese and not set off the trap at all.

We ended up scooping it off a counter-top and placing it outside hoping a creature more vicious than we are would find a mouse dragging a trap around and kill it.

I fear the worst this morning, whatever is in here now is aggressive. It's been making lots of noises, and the trap is still on the other mouse's leg. I thought we only had one mouse........

i always thought it was "pissing in your cheerios". . .

I had a similar situation with a squirrel about 15 years ago - very funny glatt. Brought a reminiscent smile to my face.

HungLikeJesus · 10-10-2008, 09:58 AM

Put the mouse in a rear naked choke. That should do it.

glatt · 10-10-2008, 10:54 AM

That's happened to me before with a mouse. The solution is easy. I have a metal coffee can I keep handy. You pick up the trap with the mouse in it, drop it in the can, put it in the freezer, and then the next day, you take the mouse-cycle out of the freezer and drop it in a plastic bag to be deposited in the outside trash can. It sounds harsh, but it's the easiest and most humane way to do it. The mouse gets cold, falls asleep, and never wakes up. It experiences discomfort, but not as much as if you tried to kill it with a blunt object or something. Plus, it's very easy.

Cicero · 10-10-2008, 11:08 AM

Aaah haaah! Yes! I see......

Well that works. I've thought that might not be a bad way to go myself...If it's good enough for me....

Why didn't I think of that?

HungLikeJesus · 10-10-2008, 11:10 AM

We catch our mice in a live trap, then release them in a park or cemetery.

A few weeks ago I went around the outside of the house and filled in all the little holes with caulk and putty (mice can get in some pretty small cracks). We've only had one mouse in the house since then.

This is something I have to do once or twice a year.

Cicero · 10-10-2008, 11:17 AM

Hmmm...I'll have to look into this "live trap" thing too.
