I may not remember, but I agree whole-heartedly. I hate mieces to pieces, too. The little varmints haven\u2019t been my favorite animal for a long, long time, not since the charm of Stuart Little and <em>The Mouse and the Motorcycle<\/em> during the infamous bedroom closet mouse invasion of 1991.<\/p>\n<p>But this afternoon when Hiram found a mouse nest on the the heating element in the air vent underneath the windshield wipers, my dislike turned to loathing. The discovery and removal of the nest, along with the extraction of two dead babies stuck to the cabin air filter, cleared up the mystery of Monday\u2019s hitch hiking mouse. It wasn\u2019t a hitch hiker at all, it and its family were squatters.<\/p>\n<p>Well, I have never fancied myself as a landlord and don\u2019t intend to start now. The car dealership had no idea of how to keep Mickey and Minnie from rebuilding Shantytown and a quick search of the internet turned up these suspicious and\/or unsatisfactory solutions:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Mothballs<\/li>\n<li>Live traps<\/li>\n<li>Mouse traps<\/li>\n<li>Dryer sheets<\/li>\n<li>Peppermint oil on cotton balls<\/li>\n<li>Hot pepper<\/li>\n<li>Cats<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Supposedly, the mice don\u2019t like the scent of the stinky things on the list, but neither do I. In fact, I\u2019m allergic to several of them. Even though we\u2019ve used so many traps we should have stock in the company, the mice invasion hasn\u2019t ended. And while we don\u2019t own a cat, plenty of ferrel ones hang around the place, and they haven\u2019t kept the mice at bay either.<\/p>\n<p>So I\u2019m thinking Hiram\u2019s gonna have a whole lot of fun transforming the Corolla into a cat mobile. While he\u2019s doing that, I\u2019ll get Anne to whip up my slinky new Cat Woman outfit. That should scare the mieces to pieces, don\u2019t you think?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Who was the Saturday morning cartoon character who coined mouse hate talk?
