Are you afraid of mice?

My mom has a huge mouse phobia. And she is afraid of rats too. When she was younger she worked in a place with mice. A mouse jumped on her clothes. It didn't harm her, but she was so scared that she has a phobia now. We had a mouse in the house. We put a trap and she was so afraid that she didn't want to see it. My father took the mouse outside and he didn't kill it. He doesn't like to kill any animals. It was so hard to catch it, but we finally could get rid of it.

Since mice carry disease, we have set traps that immediately kill the mouse when caught. We don’t get them now, but years and years ago we lived in front of a field, so we would have a couple of mice a year. Never rats though. I’d throw a fit if we had had a rat.

@marguicha It's true. I am afraid of rats because they can be dangerous.

I'm not scared of them but sure not a fan of them either
I had them invade my cabin while I was in the hosp
& when I got where I could do something about it
I did, I bought 148 clue boards & a electronic mouse
radar system that took care of the situation 4-GOOD.

@dya80dya It may not be every 1's idea way of getting rid of
critters but with as many as there was in the place I had to do
something besides just turning them lose to come BACK again
The whole point was to get rid of them 4-GOOD & not come
back & when you find 3 nest full of babies that's not my idea
of what's idea for every 1, it's what HAD to be done to get rid
of them, I now have a electronic device to KEEP them out.

Not really fond of mice and rats but also would not want to kill them if not necessary.

Many people are afraid of mouse.I highly appreciate your father for his kindness.I also don't like to kill any animal or bird.If a mouse comes in our house;we catch it in a trap and leave it in a ground far away from our house.

My mother also is afraid of them too. We have 4 cats so they will kill one if one comes back in the house.
