Just when you thought you got rid of them... (1 AM apartment cleaning)

THEY RETURN.

One word: MICE.

 

 

So it has been over a month since I last saw signs of having a mouse in my appartment (thanks for the tips on my previous blog post foreverYB518 and iamjennielee <3) and I bought all these things to get rid of them, but being too much of a coward to actually set up a mouse trap and try to kill them or such I decided to buy an electronic device thingy. It makes these high notes that seem to scare mice away. So I put it in the kitchen and all the traces of mice were gone. And I was so happy, that I may have become a bit lazier in my cleaning my house... But they were gone, so it did no harm right? I would not see mice again...

...That was until tonight.

I didn't feel like taking the garbage out today, so I put the bag of garbage at the door of my bedroom and told myself I was going to take it out the next morning. Already half asleep, I stumbled to my bed and just watched a few youtube videos before going to sleep. In the corner of my eye I saw something move and even though I thought it was just my imagination, I looked up...

And made eye contact with the creature that I fear most. 

I did the only thing my primal insticts could think of doing: I screamed my lungs out. Fun fact: It was 00:14 am. (Sorry dear neigbours~)

So, after losing my voice and calling my parents in shock (sorry parents~ didn't mean to wake you but I was scared~), I went to go and clean my whole appartment. I did all the dishes twice, cleaned the stove, the counter, the floor on hands knees (with a wet cloth, because I can't go vacuuming in the middle of the night), I put all the food in the house in the fridge/in sealable boxes, I put my all my clothes in the closet (where they belong, muffins! not on your couch), I organised my shoes, got everything of the floor, cleaned the floor by picking crums of the carpet on hands and feet, went outside at 1 am to take out three bags of garbage in my pyjamas.... And now I'm wide awake.

I'm sitting up straight in my bed, too afraid to sleep because the mouse could be anywhere.

Ugh.

Anyone tips on how to become less scared and/or sleeping tips? ... I still have classes to attend tomorrow orz.

 

 

...

I mean it was actually a really cute little mouse, like a little ball of fur with a small tail.

But nope. I screamed. And if I see it again, I will scream again. Yes sir.
