I had to laugh when I read this. See, I thought about the
exact same thing last night, except I didn't have a Shop Vac.
I have one of the Kirby vacuums. Somehow a tree frog ended
up in my dining room. I though, no big deal, until I thought
about the frog guts that I would have to clean off the
spinning blades of the vacuum. (Kirby's have blades.)
So then I thought I would grab him in piece of newspaper and
throw him in the canal out back. Well, little did I know that
this little tree frog could jump 4 feet high over the newspaper
that I had blocking him in. I, of course jumped 5 feet back
not wanting to have said frog on my head. So here I am, chasing
the blasted frog all over my dining room, family room and back
to the dining room again, under the dining table, over the
dining table. I have 18 inch tiles and he was clearing three
of them easily! I finally went and got a plastic cup that I
had been using to paint and covered him with it. Man that little
thing was strong. Slipped a piece of paper under the cup and
took him outside. Ok, so here we go outside, and we were going
to throw the little froggie away but keep the cup. Throw! I
didn't see anything appear in the darkness. So I throw again,
nothing. Throw! Nothing! Throw you #@% still not wanting to
loose my painting cup. Finally after a good 10 tries, the blasted
frog relinquishes his grip on my cup and goes tumbling
through the air. Plop as he hit hard ground. Oops, he should
have hit the water, but after all that, I didn't care.
You know that feeling? :) Damn frog!

Hey guys,
Just have to pass this helpful tip on...
A pal at work was trying to remove a mouse from his shop when he got the
clever
inspiration to use the shop vac - he put one of the smaller tips on (~1" in
diameter),
and applied this to whatever cavity he had chased the mouse into -
apparently it
worked real good - mouse was sucked right up - he gave me a rather humorous
description of the little guy rattling up the tube and the WHAM! as he
slammed
into the deflector in the shop vac, causing his untimely demise.
Given all the trouble mice seem to cause many people on this list, I hope
somebody finds this helpful...
