You mean like 'No honey, but I didn't want to get my fingers all peanut- buttery so I used my XXXXX.'

Yep, the bucket / bottle / welding rod thingy works well but I just can't bring myself to drown the little guys. Snapping their little heads, now that seems to be OK but the struggling an swimming part bothers me.... Not dumping on anyone else for doing it, and I know it works great, just that I can't quite bring myself to set one of those up.
After looking at your pics I think that I had better have a very close inspection of my C14 when I get home. It was snowing this morn so I didn't ride to work.
A few years ago I had just opened our pool up for the season and I didn't get the ladder set-up yet. One of the squirrels that lives in our trees drowned in the pool. I thought about that poor animal swimming and swimming till he couldn't swim any longer and finally drowning. I felt like crap about that. I just can't bring myself to do that to the lil **** assed mice. Killing them instantly is a different story.
What's your point? Just because you are too wussy to use the bike you want to deny its use to a few adorable, furry little critters (easy boys!)? You are a hard- hearted man Conrad!
Brian
I love you Conrad!
I think you are talking about cousin Ralphy. There is more to that story than you might know- the other squirrels were teasing Ralphy by telling him they did not believe he could swim. Just then, there was this old guy taking the cover off a pool under the tree they were nesting in. You know how it turned out.....

I can believe that story! Oh the looks that I got from the remaining squirrels...
Most of them are harmless..... but watch out for Aunt Edna! She gots rabies and she goes right for the nuts! Who am I kidding- we all go right for the nuts. Even faster if they are in a burl bowl. And not just any kind of burl but real, amboyna burl bowls.

Burl.........ahhhhhhhhh.
Just came back with 4 more instruments of destruction and death for any mouse brave enough to venture into my garage. The only way I'll spare them is if they install my Canyon Cages for me. Other than that, they're mice toast.
Jim- you cannot successfully rid your garage of mice using a toaster. Those toasters, or 'instruments of destruction' as you call them simply won't work. Even if you get the mouse into a toaster slot, they just won't stay still long enough for you to actually toast them.
Why not just use mouse traps like the rest of us? Sheesh!
