I'm glad it was a mouse that you were talking about in your pants leg.  This
is a family list.  
Maybe you should have installed a video camera also, to make sure that he's
not chewing all the stuff around that bait.  ;)  Maybe he's chewing the bottom
of the desk drawer to let the poison fall out?

I always think of mice as female.  Kind of weird, eh?  I just think that where
you find one there's bound to be a bunch of offspring in a nest.

Anyway, good luck with that.  I don't like to poison, because you never know
where they're going to go to die.  ( Hopefully not up your pants leg. )  But,
I learned a lesson this time around: "Tie the trap if you want to know where
the carcass is."
