There are multiple types of inexpensive humane traps that will allow you to catch a mouse without harming it. Popular types of nonlethal traps include: The Havahart Mouse Trap is a small steel cage with a trapdoor on either side. Mice are lured in by the smell of bait, and their weight triggers a mechanism which shuts the trap doors. These traps have plenty of room for the mouse inside, but can only trap one mouse at a time. The Smart Mouse Trap is made from transparent plastic. It has a single door; mice are lured in the door by the bait and, like the Havahart trap, their weight triggers a trap-door mechanism. This trap is recommended by many animal rights organizations. The Mice Cube trap is a long rectangular plastic box, with a one-way plastic door on one end. The bait is placed on the far side of the box and, once the mouse is inside, the door snaps shut behind it. This trap is the easiest of the three to use, but does not provide any ventilation to the trapped mouse. Once you decide which nonlethal trap to buy, check your local hardware store for availability. The bait is the material that you will place inside of the mouse trap, in order for its scent to attract the mouse to your trap. If you have an inadequate bait, mice will not be drawn into your trap. Common types of mouse bait include substances that either put off a pungent odor, or that mice like to eat. Bait your trap using: Oatmeal or crackers. Peanut butter or bacon. Dry beef jerky. You need to find specific locations which the mouse frequently moves through; these will be the most effective places for you to set your trap. Listen along the walls for micethey make a light scratching sound. If you're lucky, you might see a mouse emerge from its Check along the floorboards; especially in dark, dry places. Look for mouse droppings, as these will indicate where the mouse is most active. Mice are mostly active at night, so you may need to wait several hours (or even days) for the mouse to be caught. While the trap is set, keep small children and pets away from the vicinity.

summary: Research types of nonlethal trap. Bait your trap. Locate the mouse. Set your trap and wait.

Rub off stains immediately either with a damp cloth and gentle soap or brush off (if it's soot, dirt, etc.). Some stains can be removed using a bristle brush, especially when they're new. The sooner the item is attended to, the better. If not, proceed with deeper cleaning techniques. Every two weeks, you should dry mop your limestone floors. If you have limestone countertops, you should also clean them with a dust absorbent fabric every other week. There are plenty of cleaning supplies that specialize in efficient, dry cleaning. You could use a dust mop on a table or countertop as long as the mop is clean. For areas around the house that get heavy foot traffic, use rugs, mats, or runners. Consider spots near doorways or hallways leading to a door. Most stains occur from dirt and mud tracked onto the floor. You should also have outdoor mats to wipe your feet off before entering your house. For the limestone table and countertop users, use coasters! Limestone is susceptible to ring stains and watermarks. Prevent any damage by having plenty of coasters available for you or your guests. Place hot cooking supplies on protective mats. Similar to the condensation cups, the heat produced off hot plates can stain and damage your surfaces too.

summary: Clean spills immediately. Do a regular cleaning. Use doormats and runners. Use coasters and pads.

How long this takes depends on how dry or humid it is where you live. Paint will dry faster in dry climates and slower in humid climates. As the paint dries, it will take on a more chalky finish. Discard any leftover paint from when you applied the first coat; this type of paint does not store well, even in closed containers. This is very important. Just because paint feels dry to the touch does not mean that it is dry underneath and ready to use. Leave your project alone for 3 full days. If you use it too soon, the paint may peel off or turn tacky. Do not seal the paint with wax or acrylic sealers, or you won't be able to use it as a chalkboard.
summary: Let the paint dry for a few hours. Let the paint dry and cure for 3 days.
