My mouse trap caught more than a mouse

Sooo... Getsomehelp, you've clearly not posted bewb pics yet. That's a requirement before anyone here wants to listen to you bitch about how people here handle rodent issues.

Sounds like your problem lies with the manufactures of these products and not the people that use them. We are all in the same boat when it come to exterminating pests, we don't want them in our homes so we devise ways to kill them. I didn't invent the ways to kill them I just do.

Nah, I would say some of the people who use such products are the bigger problem. See, if people are going to use such products, they should use it responsibly. Like anything in life, really.

To give you another animal-related example, some trappers use leghold traps for foxes, raccoons and such. Do you think it is the intent of the trap maker to force the animal to chew its own leg off, or die of starvation? Or do you think the onus is on the trapper to diligently check the trap and put the animal out if its misery in a humane and proper manner?

You got a thing for poor, helpless glue-trapped little rodents.

How in the fuck is it the consumers problem? We have rats, we go out and buy products that work, some people don't want to have blood and guts on their floor, so they don't want to use mouse traps. And with poisons, they will die in-between your house walls and you have t smell their decaying bodies stench. Other people don't want to handle these rats that carry diseases/fleas and ticks, so they use glue paper.

What in the fuck does having to trap wild animals have to do with rats/mice?

It is the consumer's responsibility to ensure that the product is not misused. For example, glue traps can catch other animals like birds if they are used outdoors.

And you seriously think a glue board is cleaner? Tell that to the neighbour who found a foot left on the trap, and a long trail of blood.

As far as handling goes, that is moot because you have to handle a glue trap eventually, either with a dead animal or it or an animal that is still alive.

If that's not a stupid question, I don't know what is.

Rats and mice are wild animals too. Foxes and raccoons are also pests in some areas. The point being, if you're going to use a trap to kill an animal, kill it, don't torture it. I would have thought this was an easy thing to understand, obviously not.

You have issues. You need to contact the makers of glue boards and take your argument to them, not a guy on a car website that was using it to catch mice and accidently caught a ratsnake, moron...

Not a rational question for a female. It's always the other person/people's fault.

yeah, but at least the thought process has started. May not go anywhere, though.

I've no issue with the OP, so I'm not quite sure what your point is there. The only issue I had was with that particular poster who I initially quoted.

The trap itself isn't the problem per se, it depends on the user. That's why I brought the leghold trap analogy. This is no different. I can concede that the glue trap needn't be unnecessarily cruel if the user isn't an asshole.
