Somebody please reassure me that I'm not a horrible disgusting person.

Spike's Bitches 47: Someone Dangerous Could Get In
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

Why on earth would you be a horrible disgusting person? You're not, unless you've been REALLY GOOD at lying to all of us for the past, what, 10 years?

The mice. There was one in one of the traps. I couldn't deal with it (majorly phobic) so I went to ring the landlords' door, and they got rid of it, and she could see that I was really upset, and she said, "We never had them before" and then shook her finger at me and said, "And make sure you don't leave any more food out so that there aren't any more."

I have no problem with cockroaches and stuff. I trapped them and brought them outside plenty of times when I was living in New Orleans. Rodents, no. I was just barely holding myself back from the edges of a panic attach before she lectured me.

Frankly, your landlady is being a bitch. I would be thinking about moving. She has invaded your space to a ridiculous degree, and now she's lecturing you? Please.

She keeps reminding me that there weren't any mice before I moved in. I just remembered that the people who lived here before me had cats.

Thrive to spite them
The cats probably kept the mice at bay.
You're not a bad person. Mice happen. They get into tiny cracks and go where it's warm and where they can smell food.

If you're not allergic, cats might help. I'm kind of a slob, but Leifur keeps the invading wildlife down pretty effectively. Also, you're in no way a disgusting person, Hil.

I am allergic to cats.
And, thanks, everyone. I'm starting to feel a little better.

A terrier type dog? They were bred as rat catchers, I believe.
