    I'd probably have found my dead wife close by!

    Been there my friend.

    Buy a couple cans of fill foam and seal up all the mouse holes.

    My wife has been at war with voles for years - they follow the mole tracks and eat the flower bulbs. Earlier this year I was out in the garden in the back yard and saw a brown garter snake getting out of the way. I went in and told her and she said "Do they eat voles? Put him in the FRONT yard!" Don't see them often around here but she's not shy.

    Got two black snakes last week by accident. One with weed whacker and the other with my edging mower. I have a small 2-3' that like my shed. Girlfriend and I where walking around yard and a nice 5' had a big mouse in its belly. She is not afraid of them. I will kill the copperheads or rattlers that come in the fenced yard.

    I think others have said this, but vegetable/cooking oil will "cut" the sticky glue. I once freed a Carolina Anole from a sticky trap this way.

    First plug the hole lightly with coarse steel wool and then use the fill foam . I once filled some rat holes with concrete and the rats got through it before it set up. Someone advised me to use the steel wool. It works!

    Yep, works dog toys that roll into a corner and get stuck.
