Anyone else look up from their morning coffee to see a mouse casually walking across the kitchen floor like they freaking owned the place.....! daaaah

Have dog. Not a cat person. But it would be helpful.

Got some making a racket in the ceiling. And the dreaded dead stench as they die.

I live in a relatively new house, kept very clean (we pay someone, as well as dealing with my own somewhat annoying compulsive cleaning tendencies). We have two major builds in our street at the moment, and fuck me, the mice are on the march. so yes, I saw a mouse yesterday. I have a new dog, supposedly of a ratting breed, and he is so far adorably useless.

he is so far adorably useless.

He and I have a lot in common!

In one share house we had mice that would wander around the lounge room while we were watching tv.

Not quite, I've seen a dead mouse while looking up from my morning coffee however.

That was a couple of weeks ago.

I had one pop up from the stove while I was having breakfast
