I don't fucking know it's been the summer being exceptionally cool or what but all the mousetraps in the house need to be emptied and reset almost daily. I'm running out of ideas on where the hell they are getting in.

[QUOTE=IceBlizzerd;50714626]Got fired because the boss was in a bad mood, cant complain as it was a shit job anyways but if feel you man.[/QUOTE] It was a shit job but the job market atm seems shittier.I am supposed to get a paycheck today for hours that I already worked and vacation pay but no one appears to be there.I absolutely need that money I have 43$ in the bank atm and bills come out monday.
[QUOTE=DELL;50715333]Shitty, I too know the getting laid off. Though at least my boss changed my life for the better. Now to get this stupid mental health crap in order then onwards to the world of tomorrow. What was the job anyways?[/QUOTE] Cook, i made pastas, pizzas and most of the sauces there. Funnily enough after they fired me their sauces have been shit and my side of the kitchen is slowly falling apart.

[QUOTE=DELL;50716442]You got a hole or holes somewhere. Just seal everything that should stop them, unless they are in the walls.[/QUOTE] When I moved home in 2013 the house had a REALLY bad issue with mice. It took about two months to purge them out. One night alone I caught four within two hours. That summer I basically pulled everything away from the house and stuffed any gaps I could find with steel wool and foam. Then I trimmed the trees back that overhung the roof and replaced the chimney grille. Yet every winder and when you get a mild summer I"m trying to sleep and I can hear them in my ceiling again. I've all but run out of places to find where they are coming inside so the best I can do is place traps in the areas where I typically find them but no openings.

Cats are fuzzy assholes.
Watching Border Patrol is pretty fun, the Canadians are so much nicer than the American ones.

[QUOTE=DELL;50720640]Yeah you're gonna need to fill those gaps with something they can't chew through.[/QUOTE] Steel wool works miracles. They don't even try to chew through that and it's cheaper than foam.
Decided to get a seasons pass for Canada's wonderland. I can drag 4 people in to save a bunch of money. Who wants to go? I plan on going at least 3 times this summer. Obviously have to get yourself to the place yourself.
