I Hate Meeces To Pieces

Yesterday I left an open little tin can of latex paint in the garage. This morning I found 2 small mices drowned in there . I wonder why they were attracted to the paint. Poor little guys

Must be the same thing as bugs flying into my wet lacquer. They smell poisonous fumes and just gotta check it out.

Re: I Hate Meeces To Pieces

Thanx Ron, no exterminators required for my shop. I'll just open up a few cans of left over paint from jobs and bingo, mice problem solved...

Poor little guys??? Were they your pets???

Obviously not the same field mice that eat through my vapour barrier, destroy my insulation by building nests with it, eat through the insulation on my wiring causing me too open my walls and replace it (when it shorts out), and having to deal with all the mouse poop while trying to remedy these problems (apparently being in contact with mouse poo can be bad for your health). But they are cute !!! Wait I see one "STOMP!!"
