Heard a weird noise coming from my closet, looked around a bit and eventually found a little face looking at me.

It took some doing, he jumped around and scurried a little bit, no doubt afraid of the titan with unknown motives, but I eventually got him in an empty ice cream container and folded the top closed. I then drove him a few minutes away to some foliage and let him free.

First time I've ever done that, haven't ever really dealt with rodents until now. Cute lil guy! Didn't take any pics (sorry), but he was medium-sized and brownish gray in color. Hope he lives well.

I caught an entire family of them gradually, adults then a few babies. There's cruelty-free traps that work fairly good.

I took them to a fairly remote field with lots of shade, water, and overall a fair chance.

They haven't returned, so maybe everyone's happy and I won't have to keep mouseproofing my bags of nuts and seeds.
