What is that Marcel? A mouse super highway?

I imagine the tongs are to remove the dead ones.

Marcel, tell your friend about the electronic devises you plug into an outlet.

When I was raising pigs, laying hens, broilers and turkeys they worked for me.

Electronic device to catch mice, hmmmmmmmmmm never seen one considering I never had mice in my home.

I did have mice in my Fathers house, but always had a cat.
Had one in the cupboard onetime, open the door and put the cat in. What a commotion that was, and had a good laugh, My mother was cracking up. ha. ha.

Sorry about that, but you forget I am French and the word would be pronounced like Nouveau Foundland.
I apoligize for my spelling. Sometimes I type as I think and don't think as I type.

When I was a carpenter I used to put mousetraps in my truck toolbox tray to teach people not to borrow tools without asking.
