Mice are still a thing, dude.
People are so privileged and they don't even know it. Every place I have lived I have had to catch mice, and we're not messy with food and don't leave stuff out. We don't kill them either. We just can't afford to live in some new-ass house or apartment, and we're above median income.
Houses tend to be built tighter so mice can't get in as easy as it was when we had old drafty log cabins, dude.
Oh good, then I can tell the ones in my basement my house is built too recently for them.
I saw a dead mouse at work two hours ago. Mouse traps, bait, and poison are still sold in grocery and hardware stores. You are just wrong.
Hmm other factors: Traps and poison to keep the population down. Amazing. City ordinances to keep trash levels down and thus mice populations down. Incredible. A refrigerator to keep your bread in. Lasereyes.jpg
It's not if mice still exist lmao, it's whether we still need breadboxes to stop them eating our bread. Since you are so insistent on moving the goalposts I'll leave you to have your last rage comment. Ciao.
Look at this guy, living in a house less than 70 years old.
I'd think most things post WW2 would be pretty good if kept up and neighbors kept up. Probably even older if they went through checking for gaps and air leaks. Neighbors play a role, if there's a mice outbreak they'll find more weaknesses.
Also we have fridges now. Yes you might argue to not put bread in the fridge but if mice are eating it you'd probably do it pretty quick.
