-Much to my surprise today was beautiful. Instead of experiencing the side-effects of Hurricane Igor we had a pretty regular fall day.
-Contrary to what was reported by Reuters earlier today, Canada did not escape Hurricane Igor unscathed. As noted earlier today, Newfoundland has been suffering from Igor's consequences for the better part of the day. According to my family many trees have been knocked down and power is still out in certain parts of St. John's (and presumably the rest of the province).
Not surprisingly, a number of photos of the damage have been posted online already.
-Last night, after several people suggested that we use baited traps, we made the switch. So far it would seem that these baited traps have been a little less effective than the unbaited variety. Last night we didn't catch a single mouse though each of the two previous nights we caught mice with unbaited traps. Apparently you can mess with success.
-I should get back to work.
-Oh man, there are some associated with commenting on Globe and Mail news articles that will be rolled out over the next few days. Just tonight I learned that one of the major changes was something that I suggested. Maybe I will try to provide a few more details at a later date (and once the changes have been fully implemented).

Let's say you had 28 traps at hand and baited perhaps six at most. Declaring that baited traps don't work as well as non-baited traps isn't really proven, is it, since you still would have over 20 non-baited traps functioning, and they didn't catch anything last night either.
Is it possible that there is a paucity of mice to be caught given that four have already been dispatched to the hereafter recently?
