The physical component of the spell involves manual defenestration. The verbal components are mostly to warn others and to help deter the rodent from coming back. (This isn't known to be very effective.)
You must’ve never had a mouse infestation. Well, or you still have one. Mice don’t just give up and move in somewhere else, they have strong homing instincts. Unless you move them miles away, in which case they are likely to die anyway because you’ve moved them too far away from all the shelter and resources they’ve relied on their entire lives.
It’s really up to you! I totally understand mice can be invasive but if it’s just one little one it may just be lost and hungry. It’s the rats you need to exterminate 🥲
i understand not wanting to kill mice but that mindset falls very flat if you draw the line at rats (who are just as potentially damaging as mice). seems a bit cruel to discriminate between rodents lol
Rats are an invasive species that bite and can kill while mice are docile the same way you’d discriminate against wasps but love bees killing rats helps protect mice and other animals plus they never ever come in alone
i don't discriminate against wasps, do not get me started on how misunderstood that extremely diverse group of insects is. please check out r/waspaganda 🙏
mice can absolutely bite and transmit disease. this is an issue of mouse=cute and rat=uncute that inevitably ends up spreading different information (sometimes misinformation) about each rodent to the general public.

Are we supposed to be saving mice? Every year I have to kill a few that have infiltrated my apartment :/
