Mouse in the house!

So after dinner tonight I told my wife that since it's a nice evening I'd like to take a ride in the Stang. Off we go, traveling the back roads of our county. We stopped to enjoy the sunset and were heading back when all of a sudden my wife starts smacking my arm and making funny sounds. "UH.....UH.....UHHHHH...." and point out the windshield.
What....WHAT is it!
"Uh....UH.....UHHH!" She's still pointing out the windshield and I'm puzzled.
"WHAT the heck is it?"
"MOUSE! There's a mouse!"
Now I'm thinking she's lost it. How the heck can she see a mouse on the road?
Then, as I'm looking between her and the road, I see it. A freaking little mouse sitting on the windshield wiper blade right in front of my wife! Holding on for dear life, tail straight up in the air and looking at us. I couldn't believe it. I reached down and flipped the wipers on. Fling! Away he went.
As soon as we got home I popped the hood and checked around. Looked ok but I ain't taking any chances. Right now the Stang is in the garage with FOUR mouse traps set on the floor around the car. I am NOT going to allow mice to mess with my Mustang! SHEESH!

PETA should be knocking at your door at any minute now. They monitor this forum very closely, you know.

You could not pull over and just let him go run away safely?

When I saw the title of the thread I thought you got a small block Chevy. Goes to show you where my head is at.

I had not idea where this post was going...but that's a crazy story. I guess the Mouse is also a Mustang fan.

Definitely! Check your garage door for any warp or openings. I had a '96 Formula that was a magnet for the little suckers until I fixed the garage door. Problem solved once I caught about a dozen 'leftovers' trapped inside the garage. Peanut butter on the traps is a sure fire trick.
By the way, be glad you didn't have a vert when you flipped on the wipers. Fling the mouse right off and into your wife's hair!

Get some of those poison blocks the mice eat. Works better than the trap.

OBVIOUSLY that mouse wasn't strong with the force! Otherwise he would have sliced a hole in the mustang and took over control!
