I'm not in the least scared of mice,we have a garden and it was a freezing night so they do venture in.
We don't put down poison bait now because of Hugo,no sign of it since maybe it's staying clear now it had a narrow escape from the cat.
I know that but when you're running an establishment like a B&B rooms should be checked every day - especially as that mouse was in a couch that could be used as an extra bed It's a management problem he has there that needs addressing
My brother once dropped off some bedding plants he's grown at work - without realising, a field mouse was asleep inside. It shot out behind the cooker. I stopped screaming a few hours later and then brother managed to catch it and put it in a box and released it back near his work place
