Troubles for Mice Direct

[rabernet]

There was a story on the news this evening about Mice Direct. I caught the teaser for it and told Karl - "we need to see who this is, maybe I can get some feeders for cheap if they're closing this person down". I was thinking it was a mom & pop type organization at first.

Here are a few stories on this situation. According to the story, they were not shut down by the Dept. of Agriculture, but rather can not sell any more animals until the investigation is closed:

Interesting to note - the commentator commented on the fact that residents were complaining about the smell, but that the news crew had been all over town and didn't smell a thing.

I hope those guys win, honestly though. I could easily see someone going "Oh, they have all these mice, whats that moving in the grass- whats that smell."
One would wonder "Hm, they've invested all this money in the mice, and since the mice are the basis for their business.... why are they just letting them get loose so carelessly?"

but im not there so what can i really say?

I'm not sure Adam. When I tried to call them one time a few months ago (hoping to find a less expensive source close to me), their answering machine named the rack company - but there was no mention of it in the story.

I haven't seen an AD on KS for their racks in months???? They used to run it every couple of days.
