Eli is a HUGE tattle tale! Here is the story:
There is a mouse in my parents house. I have seen him a few times and I put a trap right in his path. That mouse took the cheese without setting off the trap! I was mad and grossed out because I had to touch the trap and put more cheese on it AND it kind of snapped my finger. OWW. So I said something like "that mouse is a little butt hole." Hey, at least I didn't swear which I almost did and for some reason butt hole was the word that my brain choose probably because I really wanted to say "that mouse is a little shit!"
I immediately said "Sorry Eli I said a bad word." Eli was quick to forgive and nothing more was said...until later. At dinner that night Eli announced: "my mom said a bad word today but I'm not telling you what she said because then I'll have to say sorry." Ummm thanks Eli, for throwing me under the bus!

That is funny. I better watch myself around him I don't want him to get me into trouble.
Try peanut butter in your trap. The mouse will not get away with the bait using peanut butter and mice love it!
I love Eli. That's hilarious.
A few years ago we went through a week of Joe vs. The Mouse. This sneaky mouse could get anything out of the trap. Joe modified a bunch of traps so they were extra-sensitive (it was almost impossible to set it down without snapping it). He set up a circle of these super-traps, all baited with peanut butter with dog food stuck in it, right at the hole where the mouse came in. A few hours later I hear "SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP SNAP".
No more mouse.
