Found this guy today... dead. In hindsight I think perhaps the classic, medieval hammer trap would have been better than witnessing the aftermath of what the sticky trap can do to its prey. Man this one was a hard pill to swallow. It died with it's eyes open 'n everything. Upon closer inspection I found bite/claw marks towards the left end on the pad leading me to believe that he was only partially stuck. But once you're stuck, you're stuck for good. So with his final gasp he went for it all and collapsed on it's side. Poor thing. What a horrible way to die. Imagine if they had some sort of torture device like this for humans. I would take the guillotine over a sticky pad any day. I hope this is it. No more mice. No mouse could churn this milk into butter.

You might have a rodent infestation, ever think of that? Maybe you'll find one named Ralph riding a motorcycle with a half singed ping pong ball for a helmet.
