Mice

Okay - I have to let off a little steam......Those damn mice! I have caught 14 and there are still 2-3 running around. My landlord claims he has put traps down, but damn they seem to be digging in my plants and I seem to be catching all of them! I am getting tired of this crap! I clean my kitchen only to have soil dug up by the next morning. I was in there kitchen and came face to face with one of those little buggers, He has a piece out of one of his ears - I could have caught if I was quick enough, but it was also 3 AM and I was in my birthday suit - not really in a position to go escort him to my local park. It is just so discouraging - no matter what I do the situation doesn't seem to get any better. I am getting to the point where I don't want to use humane traps anymore - I just want them gone! I don't know what else to do and I don't want to have to be dealing with this during the winter. I am so frustrated and angry - I just don't know what to do.
I may have to give up most of my plants and I just hate doing that - I love having plants and it is tearing my heart out to have to give them up.
