Ideas on how to humanly remove mice

[Douglas Frank]

An idea for one of you budding entrepreneurs out there--

1. find an ermine
2. hold it over the mouth of an open bottle
3. squeeze
4. cap bottle & sell

A good friend of mine had a bad mouse problem in her apartment.  One day 
an ermine found its way in somehow.

It was there for a day or two only.  Its movements were so quick she 
couldn't herd it outside, much less capture it.  It ate *all* the mice, 
then lit out for parts unknown.

For months afterwards, the mouse problem was absolutely gone.  Although 
my friend's nose detected nothing, the ermine left behind its scent, and 
that was enough to keep mice away.
