#7Who leaves a mouse on a glue trap until it dies? That's messed up! I can hear when a mouse is on those things and at that point I carry the frightened mouse outside, pour a cap full of vegetable oil around it's feet and it frees itself, running off into the yard, then the trap goes in the trash. Heinously cruel? Only if you're a lazy shit.

#8Not the kind of link I’d expect on hacker news.
I’ve used glue traps once, wouldn’t use it again after seeing what happened to the mouse. I went back to the old school spring traps, which are also cheap.

#9I rescued a chipmunk from a glue trap while walking my dog last week. They really are inhumane. It's 2019, we should be better than this.

Don't worry about them: once we have killed off all the vertebrates (in the next few decades by the look of it) they will have the opportunity to evolve into the next generation of dominant megafauna and their archeologists will dig up our bones and speculate on whether we had societies and civilization.
