Indeed and as fun as it sounds to capture them, release them, and then watch them run back inside to start the cycle again, it seems rather cheaper to simply leave the bugger and go AWWW! every time we see his little tail disappearing behind the cooker.
I'll get worried if they start showing up more often, but so far, it's infrequently, and they don't seem able to get up onto any of the countertops or appliances or cupboards, so our food is safe and there shouldn't be an immediately dreadful hygiene problem.
Plus the other problem is, like I said, even if we get our house well and truly trapped-up, unless the rest of the houses in the row do so (and at least some of the houses/flats are empty/abandoned at the moment) it's an exercise in futility as they'll just keep moving through. *sigh*
At least I'm not afraid of mice? Unlike my 6'2" 16-stone flatmate?
