Default Cheaper to kill them

Mouse traps that kill, one pound fifty.

Humane ones that you catch and release, four pound fifty.

I can't kill any creature, even a spider or a fly- literally! I even get a guilt complex if I accidentally tread on a snail in the garden!

Therefore, I'd have no issue at all paying extra for a humane trap. I wouldn't be able to live with myself if I used a traditional mouse trap.

It's wrong however, that it is cheaper to kill than to capture and release.

Mice don’t bother me.
It’s the rats you need to watch out for.

Better do it in a humane way. 3 pound is nothing (not that it's about money anyway...).
And as LT said, the best way is just being proactive and then you're less likely to need pay 1.50 or 4.50.

I was hoping this was a discussion about those 6 scumbags jailed yesterday for raping all those young girls.

Thanks for the advice Mrs mop.

I live in the country so I get birds nesting in the roof and a squirrel in his/her winter nest in the loft.

Also I will add I have a house rabbit called patchley and any more of your cheek lt, I will send him round to beat you up.
