The other day Trent noticed some potty-like stains under a cushions of our couch. Last night he noticed droppings from a mouse. OH GREAT!! We found a hole where we thought it was going in and out of. And think he would come out of it and run underneath the cushions and eat the many crumbs Evelyn loves to leave! So Trent got to work trying to find the dang thing. See, this saw he got out and was cutting up our couch and basically taking it apart. We heard scratching and a squeak. 3+ hours later no results but wood everywhere and one torn up couch. We have no idea what the heck happened, or where the thing could have been. We are sure of one thing it was a baby mouse, probably tiny. We don't know how long it has been a guest in our house. We got these couches from Ty and Annie and they had a bunch of baby mice in there house when they lived up here in Provo. We have never had one. So, the question is has this little guy been on a grand adventure by 1st living in Provo, then Logandale, the Provo again? We are unsure....Annie have any input on this???ha ha. So, right now the section of the couch where we know it was, (heard squeaking and scratching) is now outside on our porch. Trent doesn't know if he squished the little guy or if he is just an excellent hider. We set a trap of crumbs out on it...to see if any get eaten. Trent thinks if they don't we can still use that part of the couch cause it won't smell with the animal being so small. I don't want a mouse couch at all. We will see what the outcome is. All around last night was a pretty amusing one!!!
