The Saga of the Mice Continues

Grrr.... I am so frustrated. My mouse problem was getting so bad, I gave up trying to catch them. I did some research and found a poison that is supposed to kill mice and instantly dehydrate them so they won't smell. I figured, I would poison the pesky little critters and then plug any holes I could find so more won't invade my home.

The initial stage of poisoning the mice, wasn't too bad. I put the poison out in high traffic areas, and I could tell that the mice were taking the bait. The a few days ago, I start smelling the distinct odor of dead mice. The past couple days, the slight odor has becoming an overwhelming stench. My whole house reeks, but I can't find the dead mice anywhere. The last couple of evenings, I have found excuses to go out, so I don't have to sit at home and deal with the smell.

Now, I am not sure which is worse, live mice or dead ones. I just can't win.
