On the weekend Rachelle and I went up to a friend’s cottage. At this time of year all of the mice are looking to find someplace warm to live and have thus been making plans to infiltrate the cottage. In response to this our friend set up a couple of mouse traps baited with chocolate and what followed was nothing short of a massacre.
