Lester the dorm mouse

There was a mouse in my room and I suspected it was getting in through the hole for the radiator pipe, so I set up a motion-activated webcam security system to test this theory. Meet Lester!



I'll post an update if I manage to catch him. :)

Molly, what a riot. That was ingenious. We all want to know how you rigged up the motion detector. I can see real potential for this. What are your plans for Lester's capture? You've named him so I guess you've already bonded. If need be we'll send you a case of saltines and possibly contribute to his tuition. Anxious for the next update.

Molly, this was a hoot! I watched it yesterday at the office and I had to show my colleagues because they wanted to know what I was laughing about. You couldn’t have planned this any better if you had tried. I heard the Reed maintenance staffs have loosed a few boa constrictors to remedy the infestation so you better catch him/her quickly so that he doesn’t become lunch! Try this on for size… and they love peanut butter!

Love ya, Peter
