There were some over ripe oranges on the testing station that I cut up
and threw into the jars of vinegar. Overall, the fly problem is much,
much better.
As far as the mice go, I saw one navigating the kitchen counter and two
more scurrying down below on the floor. So now we have to deal with the
mice.
Is there a humane way of ridding the space of mice? The way I handled
Gerald was (saw him in the trash bin and carried it out to the sidewalk).
Maybe we need a new "mice" thread.
Thanks for all of your help and advice with the flies.
