When the dirty neighbor moves out you're about to have a "mouse issue".
IMO, get ready now and set some old-school wood-and-copper snap traps, I put mine in shoeboxes or disposable tupperware with little mouse holes in the side. This keeps the kitty off the traps. I bait with peanut butter, two traps per box and I bend the sear so it goes off on a hair trigger.
I am loath to use poison on rodents because I don't want to make pets, raptors, or owls sick. I settled on Cholecalciferol because it seems safer for other wildlife.
Good luck and don't forget, smacking them with a broom works too.
edit: I like to imagine the two people who downvoted this are soap-dodging militant vegans who are AGHAST I would kill vermin.
Thanks for the information. I guess it's time to get containers for all my food. I already keep bread in the freezer.
Wouldn't you rather enjoy it?
I just toast it. It's just regular American grocery store bread. Anything nicer gets eaten pretty quickly but sometimes I want a piece of toast with my cocoa.
