Hey all.  I'm currently living in mom's house and a few weeks ago we
noticed mouse doots in the sink.  We cleaned up really well and put all
the food away, and a couple of days ago I started living there.  I've
always washed the dishes just moments after using them, and put food in
the fridge or in a tight pantry, but yippee, the mouse is back.
 Surprised the heck out of me, too.  Ugly, nasty critter.
 Mom's cat was unfortunately declawed, so I don't know if I want to bring
him back to deter mice.  What would you recommend for a mouser, or is
using a cat as mouse deterrent a bad idea?
