Guest guest Posted September 23, 1998 Report Share Posted September 23, 1998 Mice can be caught with traps that do not kill them, and can be taken out and left in the open. Of course there is the dilemma on what happens if it is a cold winter day. So I agree that the less spiritually evolved like me have a dilemma with no solution. I have caught centipedes by putting a cup on top, then sliding the cup over a thin pad, and leaving the centipede outside the house. The problem is that I have had to do this in winter as well, pretending that I have not killed the centipede. So Mani's question is very relevant, and I need guidance too. -krishnamachari --------------- MESSAGE bhakti.v003.n100.3 --------------- "K. Srinivasan" <srini insecticide?

It is possible that the insect is able to live on other leaves, which are in plenty outside. (Or it might die due to other reasons.). Certain organic insecticides do not kill the insects. They may make them sterile. If you find a mouse, what do you do? Your dilemna does not have an easy solution. There might be a standard answer according to our scriptures. But it may not be easy for everyone to accept. K.Srinivasan Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
