Mice are disgusting, disease-carrying pests. Why anyone would want one as a pet is beyond me. *shudder*
Ali, Samson should take care of any more you might have. However, it's probably not a bad idea to get one of those rat poison thingys. If there are more, one will take it back to the nest and get rid of all of them. On a side note, I love how cats are so proud of themselves when they present you with dead animals...or part of dead animals. My mom's best friend's cat used to present her with birds, mice, squirrels...pretty much anything she could catch outside...on the front porch and sit there like, "look what I brought you!"

I hate mice! I use to work at girl scout camp during my summers in college and we were told that if we saw mice we shouldn't scream because then it would
scare the girls. We had to keep all of our arts and crafts projects and cooking supplies in these cupboards at our camps outside. One time I went to open it
and like 4 grown mice and some baby mice all came running out i completely freaked out and started screaming and jumped up on the picnic table. The girls
started freaking out because of me. It was not good haha needless to say the rest of the summer i either made someone else open the cupboard or kicked it first
to scare the mice so they would run out the back haha!

ok, i am the only mice lover here. when i found them in my trash can in the garage, they were stuck there and couldn't get out. they were so cute and
scared looking. i just took the can outside and let them go in the field. i also did research with rats in grad school and i was in charge of about 150 rats.
they were so darn cute. if you don't like them, you must get to know them. they have such personalities. don't be afraid of them. they are small. you
are big. you have the upper hand ladies.

I'm afraid of them because they carry DISEASES.
If that makes me girly, so be it. I've been called much worse. 
Oh God I just thought about them and gagged.

I'm afraid of them because they live life at AMPHETAMINE speed and they move around my floor unpredictably. Also, because they skitter around near the food
I rely on!! So they must go.
Love soon, Nessa

i won't try to convince people, if you don't like them that's ok. however, many animals carry diseases. i still think they are cute. it's not
like i'm handling mice/rats that are not pets.

Mice only scare me when they appear out of nowhere. The same could be said for anything that startles me. It's THAT feeling that scares me, not the
creature itself. Heck, a few months ago, I held a 7-foot-long, 40 lb. boa constrictor without fear.

Yup, I agree. Cute in a cage. Scary on my living room floor or in my dry goods.

I have no problem with mice/rats that are caged. I tend to like all furry animals. But the second they're loose, look out! I freak!

One of my college roommates had a rat. She named it Kitty. He was quite cute and fun to play with, but wild rats kinda scare me. Mostly because I don't
want to get bitten and feral animals are more likely to bite than ones that have been domesticated and properly socialized.

And let'd don't forget, the feral rodents can carry disease. The rats that were in my garage were nasty. And aggressive.
