Chocolate
We had (I really hope that past tense is correct) mice in our house. We caught two and haven't seen signs of anymore. However, the little pests made some big messes in the short time they were around. First it appears they had a sweet tooth since they ate Ray's marshmallows. But worse, they were addicted to chocolate. They ate holes into EVERY SINGLE BAG of chocolate chips we had. I was not happy when I discovered this. However, I may use this knowledge against mice in the future and bait traps with chocolate chips. :-)

That's a way to make lemons into lemonade! I do get sad thinking about all those chocolate chip cookies you won't be able to make and eat now though...
Once we rented a house that had a mouse problem. I had congratulated myself on getting all of my stocking stuffers for Christmas all bought and stored away. I didn't realize that mice loved chocolate either but two days before Christmas I discovered a mountain of shredded Hershey's Kisses wrappers and a few pieces of the foil that had contained our solid chocolate Santa's. Not a speck of chocolate in sight! Good luck--I hope you got all of the little critters.
Wow, mice are smart! That calls for war though, messing with one's chocolate!
I hate mice!!!
i don't envy you. We once had mice in our other house before this one. They had gotten in through the vent near the roof into the attic!!! And from there into the wall and out through the dishwasher. It creeped me out.
We had a guy come and put some stuff in the attic to kill them .. thank goodness it worked.
That boils my blood that the rascals had the nerve to get into your precious chocolate! Bait those traps with chocolate and you show 'em who's boss!
