They say "Build a better mouse trap"...
SaltyInternetPirate
That's not a rat.
Icedpryo
Wouldnt work with rats. Would just eat their way out
Larrry
so when you say rat, you are talking about his personality?
tuxedobob
And then he chews through the plastic.
dieterVillain
I don't like this
Rabestee
Now he can go back in the woods
Nu773r
*Mouse
Ecknareal
That's a mouse
iWhisperSoftlyToMyButtHoles
sutra46
What no little piece of cheese or anything?! come on.
Khoshteep
*mouse *is *arrested
hughesybooze
And then it chews the fuck outta that plastic + escapes anyway..
SithShodan
Meh, a panicked rat could chew through that wood or plastic like nobody's business if it really wanted to get out
amylove40
I would stomp on it before he could chew out! Hate them nasty things!!!!
qtRaven
It chews its way out.
lawideas
1. It's a mouse, not a rat. 2. "is", not "has". 3. You misspelled "arrested".
RayLynch
I prefer traps where the mouse dies.
iwanttoeatit
Scrolled down and gif restarted thought the mouse got out for a second
intergalacticbuttjazz
There are all kinds of wrong with that title

He's under... mouse arrest.

Imgur embedding 101: don't use BBCode tags, imgur urls alone work
CopperLeagueGaming
i've tried the imgur alone and it still doesn't imbed it,
AlceCosmico
Poor little guy
Lobuttomize
Well I imagine they released it or they'd just buy a kill trap so he kept his life.
iamsometimesbearded
Until it chews it's way out of there
tzxAzrael
maybe.. but it'd be pretty hard to find a decent spot to start chewing on
iamsometimesbearded
Probably. But I wouldn't put it past that dude
tzxAzrael
i mean yea, definitely, if you just ignore it they'll eventually chew their way out, even through hard plastic.
shadow2442
I could not even hurt a mouse or rat. I think they're so cute. actually feeling bad for the guy
ImaginaryMamboNumber5
Well it hasn't been hurt so that's ok. These will be used for catch-and-release, just release about a mile away.
shadow2442
oh cool.
ImaginaryMamboNumber5
If the person was going to kill it they would have baited with poison or used your standard murderous mouse trap. Or the board game one
shadow2442
yeah, makes sense. now I can sleep again :)
EmmaAnna
I swear to god I felt so panicked for that mouse
Toastfrog
Same...It really upset me.. does that thing have air holes ?
CatBlaster5000
It's better than just cutting its head off, but that depends on your perspective.
palmedace
There's a pretty big hole at the end. It's how he got in...
Toastfrog
yeah but if he sits down the wrong end its blocked off
palmedace
I can say with 100% certainty that it isn't airtight when blocked by the brick. It isn't even touching it or it would get stuck
Toastfrog
Good point. I just felt bad for the little mouse... But you are correct
PMmeyourshatteredhopesanddreams
this is a really old design. I remember in the 80's we used to trap and release dozens of mice like this in Iowa.
ToasterDent
You lived in Nebraska; Iowa remembers.
publishersclearinghouse
Who would lease a mouse? Especially after someone already leased it I wouldn't want a used mouse
edasm
RELEASE?!?!?!
ClassyReposts
Why are you releasing all your mice in Iowa?
PMmeyourshatteredhopesanddreams
They like the fields
DougTheLlama
Or just one.
truth71
Yeah, well, I used to bullseye womp rats in my T-16 back home.
DrOsmium
Yeah, whatever you say kid
Passauf
Release? Cuz catching them twice is more fun?
SoloToplaneOnly
Release?
bigtexhand
Like Percy released Mr. Jingles?
PeteTusk
Did you use a plastic or glass bottle?
PMmeyourshatteredhopesanddreams
It was a commercially made trap. Same kind of arrangement, had room for about 5-10 mice
ReadOnlyMemories
Perhaps the same mice just came back again because they liked your place so much.
MrKibbs
Jokes on them spiders will eat them.
ReadOnlyMemories
squirrelfartsy
One mouse, over and over and over.
ThatObviousGuyThatStatesRandomFacts
That's a mouse
Shoutrr
no, that's a bottle
EverNotRelevant
Hey! That fact was pertinent! Username does NOT check out!
PilgrimScott
Wrong, that's a moose
Isaypoopythingsbecausemostofyouannoyme
Assault mouse
ImjurJiffer
Not today. Today it's a mouse, don't assume its species. It's gender is Apache helicopter tho. It's obvious.

I was looking for this comment, no idea why someone downvoted, have a plus 1
ObjectR139A1
Ill second that. This is a mouse.
Wadzirra
That's not a mouse. THIS IS a mouse!
BESTtaylorINAUSTRALIA
*staring Australianly*
SeriousCloud
I've played mousey spoony before
Vatafeo
cant these guys just chew their way out?
tzxAzrael
right but where you gonna find a spot to bite?
DumpoldRant
Thats a good point. It could potentially chew through the wire holding the bottle and roll the bottle off the base depending on materials.
tzxAzrael
could... but then it would have to push the wires out of the holes. but mice don't understand mechanics that way, and the wires would still
tzxAzrael
stop the bottle from rolling, because the screws/washers hold them up.
doctorbocker
The back end, where the plastic is molded.
tzxAzrael
the hardest part. also this doesn't taste like chewable things. should i be chewing on it? and i don't think mice would understand "chew my
tzxAzrael
way to freedom" when given the opportunity to move around and look for other ways out. i'm basing this on the fact that this has been used
tzxAzrael
to successfully trap mice for many decades.
TheBigLetdown
I wonder if he made it out

clayman318
And his name was albert einstein
IAmAHollow
Usually when people construct traps like these it's to romeve the pest in a humane way, so he's likely died of old age ^-^
CentaurForDiseaseControl
Or he died of cats
IAmAHollow
ShhhhhhhHHHH. He had a full, happy life!
bossbrigand
Left alone in there they can easily chew their way out. You gotta monitor these traps pretty religiously.
TheBigLetdown
Thanks for the info
SharkswithFrigginLazerBeams
You gotta coat the inside with additional mouse traps.
Aksuuuh
Or trap mice
kirosharlequin
Or use glass
DKCalibre
Glass would be significantly heavier and might not be offset by the weight of a mouse.
hughesybooze
You could add weights to it to mitigate this though.
DKCalibre
That starts to defeat the purpose of the simplicity
Dexidus
Then you have to drill through glass
ChaosFaktor
So drill through it.
Dexidus
You're a thinker, I like you.
