Mouse in the House

12/04/2001 04:12 PM WaltWasz

I've been told that this is the time of year that mice may enter into one's home - when it's cold outside. We have been in this house for six months, and have not seen any evidence of mice before this. Two days ago we saw one mouse in our newly finished basement and tried to catch it, unsuccessfully. The very next day we found it, caught it and released it outside. I'm hoping that it was the same mouse that we saw on these two different occassions. We found that it had been feeding on lawn seed which we had stored. Can I assume that there is more than this one mouse in the house? Do mice ever travel alone??? If we were to set up bait and wait for another, what is the length of time that would be sufficient for us to believe there are no more in the house?
