Feeling stupid
Im stressed and depressed but feel so stupid for the reasoning behind it... i discovered a mouse issue in the place I just started renting and im scared to be in home. Especially to sleep. Ive been couch surfing for a month now and cant bring myself to go home. I dont know what to do anymore.

That's not stupid... It's your brain keeping you safe from vermin. It's totally ok and valid <3
*hugs*
@scaredmomma7699 get mouse glue traps. They're really good.. I had some issue in my home couple of months back... put these traps and got rid of them.
Also check if there is an open entry point - most likely some hole in a window or floor or wall .. stuff it up so they dont enter again.
But ure sadness is valid. It shows your a clean person and concerned about good home hygiene... I was sad too - one has to be a little patient and trust that the problem is temporary and fixable. ❤️
The electronic ones are really good. Easy disposal and resetting, reusable

Scared of mouse are the everyday life for a lot of people, so you don’t have to feel yourself stupid for this situation, it is always completely normal! To dealing with your fear, maybe you can go by some mouse trapper and put it at home so it can trapped the mouse!
@Scaredmomma7699 hi, i don't have a lot of support to give but know you are heard and you did good reaching out to write here. i think if i were in your situation, i would feel the same. really hoping things become better and someone has some advice better than mine.
I should also say. Reason i feel so stupid is i work in pest control for a living. So i should be ok dealing with this.. eradicating the problem is easy but the mice following threw and leaving it hard. Its out of my control in a way and that's whats making me crazy. I slept at home last night for the first time in a while. Slept with headphone is and thought if i cant hear them maybe they arent there.... thanks for listening.... im still struggling.
@Scaredmomma7699 I'm so sorry you're going through this. Is there any state agency that might be able to help? I know in MA that the state won't allow for people/families to have to live in that type of situation.
You can try your city's health department. I just signed up for this and it asked me to heart a post, but I had to respond as well.
I don't know if you're able to contact me and let me know what state you're in. I am good at research and can hopefully find you a solution. It depends on state law.
Please reply if possible. Otherwise, please Google, "I have rodents in my home in ? who can I contact for help" or something similar. You can put your state like: "Massachusetts landlord tenant law regarding rodents".
Hope this helps. Wishing you the best! ❤️
Im in canada and we have nothing like this. I looked into if i can break my lease to move but as long as my landlord is being proactive and hiring pest control theres nothing i can do
