Are You too Visited by Mice?

Mice, fat and fleshy, have begun to visit my house. Or, they may have built a dwelling within my house, in some hidden corner of the attic . Is it only one of them that is seen scurrying hither and thither. Or are they many like the evil spirits of Gerasa, I have no way to know.
I see one coming out of our kitchen with furtive glances , right and left, before it made a dash for its safe haven.
Another one got into my nerves last night.
It made all the disturbing noises beside my bed in midnight hours.
I must place a mouse trap before they attack this poor man's shirts and trousers.

I know that feeling.I know anytime I start seeing them clear out the empty lots of weeds here, be prepared for mice to come. My old German Shepherd was that master at catching them, but he passed so kind of good in that regard have not been getting much rain so they do not have to mow down the fields that often.

There were a few here at one time when the other neighbors lived next door but there are none now.

Mice can be really hard to get rid of. Mice would be battling to get into this house, thank goodness.

I have never seen a mouse in the residential building where I live now.But I can occasionally see mice in my parents' house. They live in a self built house with a small yard and five hens that can lay eggs. My father will use a mousetrap and put it next to the rat hole, or where they often appear.
