I just know that I am rather observant, and I have business in garage LOL. rabbits are housed there at night, plus I go thru garage many times each day. Or maybe mice switched to my neighbor, we are in a duplex, and garage is between us and him.

The only way that is appropriate to me is to catch them live and relocate, BUT, in case of half-grown-up juvenile I am afraid it means to also kill them (by kicking them out of comfort of garage, they are hardly surviving in there) . Am I not right? and how did you mean to outsmart them?

of course, if I take everything out of garage leaving empty space surrounded by walls, they probably won't stay but, I don;t have such possibility. Waste basket is a magical thing - it works like a trap today another one got inside when I happened to go thru garage. Instead of jumping out and running away, it decided to hide under trash that was there. I gave her a comfortable ride with air-conditioning to the wild park. This one looked almost like an adult, or maybe it was an adult.

Barbara wrote: Maybe it's slippery? My spiders always end up somewhere that needs rescuing you rescue spiders? WOW, Barbara! Right now there is a spider with her sack in the location where I don't want them... what should I do? Anyway, yesterday another mouse was in the waste basket, but this one definitely was a smart adult (probably the mom) because she didn't wait for me to come and do something, she ran away and this happened 2 times (that I came into garage, saw her in the basket and watched her running). The same evening I set 2 traps with peanut butter where I saw her but the traps were ignored for hours.. I am again concerned that she might have tiny babies somewhere in garage and if I capture her, they will die, but I guess I need to just relocate her and stop worrying. I can't save every tiny creature
