Re: Mice!

Go to your local DIY/hardware store and see if they have any bait trays and bait for sale. Put them near where you think the mice might be coming out of the walls or running around. Refill the trays every day or two.

We had mice a while back, and we did this. The trays went between the fridge and tumble dryer, on the kitchen windowsill, in a hard to reach corner of the sitting room (not the ideal place for reaching mice but the only place the dogs wouldn't get it), between the wall and the vegetable rack, and on the storage counter. A few weeks later, we weren't finding or hearing any sign of mice.

Even when you think they're gone, leave the trays down to prevent them coming back in.

I'm going to get some traps rather than bait, hopefully they'll do the trick. The only reason I haven't so far is because one of my housemates said he would buy some this weekend. He didn't >:(

Use peanut butter in the the traps. They fucking love peanut butter.

We tried traps first, but they didn't work. The mice just wouldn't go near them. Plus then you have to get rid of either a live mouse (which has to be at least a mile away or else it will come back) or a dead one (no, you can't just throw it in the bin), if you use a trap. Bait means they die out of sight, therefore out of mind.

nayrt - I have had great success with traps (with peanut butter), and i like them because they kill quickly. The mouse has some yummy peanut butter, snap, and they wake up in heaven. You have to set them up correctly (bait towards the wall), because mice tend to scurry around the edges of things,but it's worked well.

Just wondering why you think you can't throw them in the bin? That's what I do.
