Way to miss the point. What I meant was the actual death of the mouse. On a glue trap there's the possibility it can escape, and infest someone else's house. If the job is done, then you are doing the community a service.Quote:
The manner of a mouse's death somehow affects my "community?" WTF? This ranks up there with the most ridiculous nonsense I've read. Anywhere.
Didn't say that. But I'd hazard a guess that assuming a hell exists, people who torture animals to death intentionally will be welcome with open arms.Quote:
Going to hell for killing vermin? Nope.
No trap is 100% effective but at least they're designed in mind to kill the animal instantaneously, rather than starving it to death in glue. That the trap instructions tell people to throw a live, stuck, mouse into the garbage along with trap says it all really. Fuckin' wrong.Quote:
Snap traps don't always kill swiftly either. I found a rat caught by it's hind leg in one. It was very much alive and had been gnawing at said leg in it's attempts to escape. Bet that hurt like a sumbitch. I've also found them caught by the very tips of their noses and their hindquarters, neither circumstance causing a swift death.
When I kill something, I do it as swiftly as possible where possible. To do otherwise when the option is there to do the former, just doesn't sit right with me. If you want to ignore the morality of glue traps because you "don't give a shit", then there are practical reasons against it too.Quote:
Bottom line: If you're too much of a nancy to accept that inflicting death on other living things may not always be swift or humane, then best to leave that job to others and shut your yap about the methods they employ.
I think glue traps are evil and the people who use them are fucking retards. How's that sound?
this man speaks the troof. We replaced snap traps yesterday with some stickeys and found a barely dead mouse stuck to one...Quote:

Snap traps work; it's just a matter of good baiting and good placement. One kid working for me took to super-gluing peanuts to the flapper, and that worked great.
But prevention is really the most sensible approach. It's hard to mouseproof a house, but it's not impossible: quarter-inch mesh screen, steel wool, flashing and persistence suffice. Most often, after good hole-blocking steps have been taken, and once people realize you can't leave attractive nuisances (food scraps) lying around to coax the mice in (they have only one job, and they work very persistently at it), the biggest cause of rodent infestations is doors left open. Mice know where the biggest point of ingress is, and they know to keep an eye on it and to wait near it. If you leave your doors open, you'll have rats.
At a high ski hut up in the Purcells, the owner hated rats, so invented a great trap. A five-gallon bucket with a clotheshanger axle above it, and a beer can spinning on the axle and peanut butter smeared on the can. I think he even built a ramp up close to the can. The mouse jumps on the can to get the peanut butter, the can rolls, the mouse falls into the bucket . . . which is half full of anti-freeze. Rat dies. homeowner cackles.
VINDICATION....Congrats on the killage. Lock & Load the Skippy Baby :yourock:Quote:

Yes, but then your neck breaking apparatus gets stuck in the sticky shit and you end up flailing around in sticky shit with the mouse trying to extract the apparatus....Quote:

I mean, they're fucking nasty, right?
That sounds rough, I'm still a fan of the cat / well placed and baited spring traps.
Though, the bucket with the peanut butter sounds like fun.
Kill mice. Don't torture. Better to put them in the bag and smash their head than asphyxiation. As much as I hate mice I wouldn't wish that on anyone.
Small instant of suffering for them and its over. They're doing their job and well.....we kill them for it. And then they make movies like Ratatoiulle to try to brainwash kids about what cute, misunderstood little guys they are.
I turn into a Terminator when it comes to killing mice. Is it bad form to drop a metal can full of water onto them ( in the garbage can when they fall through the recycled super market garbage bag ) and then still recycle the can?
Glue traps torture them, though. I never said anything about going to hell to kill them, heck, I already said that killing is necessary. But not torture. Nope. That's just flat out wrong.Quote:

But you probably didn't have the stones to kill it directly anyway, probably just threw it away and pretended it would die quickly. Out of sight, out of mind eh?
You're such a coward.
Plus, it could escape and re-infest your house.
LOL. In war, you kill your enemy. There's no reason to stick him in superglue and make him starve to death. Unless you're a freakin' sadist... or a interrogator trying to extract information.Quote:

doubt it, i came home to 2 on one sticky. one dead, one still trying to get out. I think they actually come and try and help. 1 trap, 2 mice. money well spent. What better bait than mommy or daddy mouse squealing away.Quote:

Does it really matter if it is a mouse? I mean, it can still suffer, right? And anyone who would make something suffer like that intentionally deserves some karmic justice. Am I wrong?Quote:

So we should follow nature's example then? Lots of animals eat their own babies - apes fling shit at eachother. Many animals shit in their own sleeping spots. Should we be doing that now?Quote:

Can't really compare human cruelty to that of the wild. One is driven on instinct, the other is driven on pre-meditated thought, aware of the consequences.
