Nothing like a mouse sighting to prompt a late night cleaning spree

Ugh! I was on my way to bed tonight, when I spotted a stinking dirty filthy mouse crawling along my kitchen counter, right next to the clean dishes on the rack. So, we've just spent the last hour re-washing dishes and scrubbing down counters and appliances. On the plus side we got the little bastard mouse, so hopefully that was a once off and he doesn't have a family vacationing behind my pantry!

Heard another trap go off, but it got away, so now we have a mouse loose in the house that won't touch a trap :(
