A few years ago, we experienced a changing of the seasons like never before, and as the cool weather arrived so did the mice — in abundance.

I have no aversion to mice unless they come into my home uninvited. That's simply a breach of etiquette I cannot abide. We had two elderly house cats, and neither was able to function with the expediency the matter required. Their presence, however, was for the most part enough to divert the rodent surplus to our barn filled to the brim with furnishings, linens, and other such enticements.
