Mouse or shrew

aratsarse101 · 2014-03-27 22:27:56

Hi there, We have been having a bit of trouble this winter in our house with these fellas. They are very easy to catch with a lunch box but there have been more than a half dozen of them. We thought they were mice but are wondering now if they might be shrews. Could anyone here be definite about it from this photo? Thanks…

The long nose is usually a giveaway.
