I'm pissed off and grossed out

[gmail]

I was cleaning our bedroom last night, and moved the laundry basket out of the corner to grab a rogue sock when I noticed MOUSE POOP ON MY FUCKING BEDROOM CARPET.

WHAT THE SHIT!?!?!?!?! As I traced along the edge of the wall/carpet/baseboard, I noticed a few more. Some old, some new. I am so so so grossed out and pissed off.

We always knew that mice were a problem in our house. We are a townhouse that backs up to woods, have an open ceiling in the basement laundry room, and there is just no way to stop them from getting in. But ever since moving in in 2009, we have been able to confine the "sightings" to the basement. Once in the kitchen, but we stopped it.

I AM SO FURIOUS that those fuckers have been in my bedroom. OMG. And so so so grossed out. OMG. ARRRGGGGGG!

Time to call an exterminator.... gross!

Definitely time for an exterminator. We had a mouse problem last spring, and tried to take care of it on our own. When I saw the fucker slink into our bedroom closet upstairs - it was on. I also was convinced that they stayed in their space (for us it was the kitchen behind the stove...) and I was "safe" upstairs. So unbelieveably gross.

Hope your mouse problems are gone soon!

Yeah, I'm making calls this AM and pricing things.

When we first moved in, we had a monthly plan w/the exterminators, but those assholes raised their prices to $99/month. So we stopped.

I'm soooo grossed out.

I told H and he was all "Oh" ::shrug:: and went back to watching Top Gear.

I swerve to avoid hitting squirrels in our neighborhood and let the chipmunks and moles that have been ravaging my lawn be, but when I saw mouse poop near my toddler's play area this winter, it was on. The exterminator nipped that shit in the bud in less than a week.

ETA: I think we spent about $200, FWIW.

Oh man,
Mice are no joke, those fuckers piss me off.

Honestly, if I wasn't so damn allergic, I would have gone to get a cat like yesterday :-(

There isn't much we can do to stop the mice from being in our home, but I really want to stop those fuckers from coming up to our room. UUUGGGGH.

Make sure you make a nice habitat with plenty of food for them elsewhere in the house, I guess.
