You twist it to set and then when it's done it's business it twists to "caught". Supposedly

Who knew there was so much to discuss when it came to mice. It looks too small to me and I suppose you just throw it away as one ? I've a feeling you're going to have to eventually resort to the guillotine variety.Actually, can't it just live in peace in your kitchen ? It sounds as if you have enough febreeze to keep your house smelling nice....I shall start up a campaign............

[push-pull-mum]

I'm hoping much the same with my "no see, no touch" mouse trap. Very inviting it looks too...

What is that exactly ? A black box ..how do you know you've caught the mouse then ? Or am I being a bit dim ?

You've heard of Schrodinger's Cat - well this is obviously a trap for Schrodinger's Mouse.

I must be extremely dim.....shall google it and be back in a flash....................

Errr, yes PPMum.. I think you are too clever for your own good !...... I have read 2 lines on Wiki and examined a diagram...and am none the wiser.Perhaps it's because I'm more of a dog person.

Never expected to see the words 'too clever for your own good' on the EPE.
Going early to bed now - with a book with lots of long words and no pictures.

Oh you're back UnScaryMum.Do you know what PPmum is on about ? My DH caught our awol hamster with a pink fishing net so I could send him round to sit on your kitchen floor for a few hours ...................

It looks too small to me and I suppose you just throw it away as one ?

I don't think size is the problem and yes I think you throw it away as one. It just feels a bit flimsy to me. I suspect I shall be off for an "off with their head" variety tomorrow. Mind you there are those new style ones which look like a giant clohes peg. I'm becoming a bit of an expert, I'm sorry to say!

I'm sure my mouse will be very glad about the campaign. Perhaps you could send him some chocolate to fortify him? <looks for happy mouse emoticon>

For those still with us, update tomorrow morning!

[scary mum]

Oops sorry, UnscaryScarlett. About to google schrodingers cat after my bath, then I'll be able to say "yes". think ppmum must be brainy type

[scarlett]

I'm feeling really sad about your mouse . A clothes peg variety ?????!!! You are an expert. Can't you keep him as a house pet.You could teach him tricks.


Yes, PPMum would def have a oxford university standard mouse in her house.

oxford university standard mouse

Ah, that's the problem. Oxford university educated mouse. Sink school dropout cat.

[scary mum]

Ah, I understand about Schrodinger's mouse now. Either dead or alive until the trap is opened. V highbrow PPmum - it's good that someone is around to raise the tone Off to bed now to let the evil trap do it's deed

I still don't understand but I blame the 2 glasses of wine . There might be a whole family in your kitchen by now, UnScaryMum.....what type of traps will you need then I wonder ?
