Who better to ask than all my good friends on SI. QUESTION: What do mice like better: Cheese or Peanut Butter? Really, I know this sounds like I'm joking, but my kid is doing a science project and we have always heard that peanut butter works better when trying to catch a mouse in a trap. If you would, please posts your guess/answer here. (smartalick remarks are welcome but let's keep it clean and about the project). I will keep you informed for the next week. The project is over in a week. A little info on the project: 5th grade science project. Testing Environment: A wood box 10"W x 22"L x 6"H with a 5" divider at one end to seperate two small dishes. 1 dish has a teaspoon size of cheese, the other a teaspoon size of peanut butter. Animal: 3 white mice (no they're not blind!). All mice are the same size and shape. For some reason or another 1 has green food dye on it's butt and another has black. <g> Testing Duration: One week. NOTE: No harm will be done to any animals "during this test". (although, there is talk about feeding them to the neighbor's snake after we are done.)https://www.siliconinvestor.com/images/Logo380x132.pnghttps://www.siliconinvestor.com/subject.aspx?subjectid=2098238013210
