We had mice a few years ago and it was horrible. Our house has so many holes in the walls, it's impossible to close them up, so it was just coming in and out all the time, peeing and pooping everywhere (and in the walls, too, which left a nice smell that could not be got rid of). We killed a baby one with a trap, but the adult was too smart for that and did not fall for a wide variety of traps. Finally we put down poison. It was a last resort because I knew the mouse would then die in the walls/under the house and probably cause more of a smell, but there was no other option. It ate like four cubes before finally dying (one cube is supposed to be more than enough!). D:
