Mouse control

Ian , I have had mixed reviews from my customers , and some of them have said that they can hear the sound from them , some customers have said the mice have returned after a while with using the device, perhaps they get used to the sound !!

We once had a mouse, which looked like a Field Mouse rather than the usual. He was a cheeky chappy as he used to sit behind the pipe going into the radiator!!! I purchased a humane trap which was like a square box with a flap lid that was triggered when the mouse entered the trap. We used chocolate as bait which seemed to work. I suppose the problem with the ultrasound device is that the mouse is still in the house and he still has to be dealt with.

We had mice in the integral garage that we tried mouse traps on to no avail.

Spent a day loading the MH up for a holiday with the garage door open most of the day.

Returned from holiday to notice 'lost cat' signs on the lampposts in our road. Unloading the MH, opened the garage door, cat ran out. No more mice just lots of cat crap to clear up. Natures best left to do its business 

Since converting garage into 2 parts, always check for cats before going away 

What's with the humane traps. We are talking about vermin here which should be killed at every opportunity. Get some spring traps like "The little nipper" that soon sorts them out. Bait with half a grape or chocolate and mind your fingers.

I sometimes get mice in the garden shed. The only traps I’ve had success with are the Little Nippers. I bait them with peanut butter, and never re use the trap.

I haven’t tried the electronic pest control devices for mice, I’m sceptical as to their usefulness.

We've used humane traps, they work well. But our cat isn't quite so  humane! The electronic devices can be quite painful on the ears if you have good hearing.

Have used poisoned grain in the past, kills them off but the trouble is you then find desiccated bodies from time to time in all sorts of out of the way places around the house.

Prefer the 'little nipper' as at least you can deal with the body straight away

We use Little Nippers, and earlier this year caught two for the price of one.

I have a very large (18lb) mainecoon cat.  He's very good at catching mice.  Came in one day with two in his mouth, and he's environmentally friendly as well

Are you able to go round your property & cement over where you think they may be getting in then at least when you've got rid of those indoors hopefully no more will get in. We also found chocolate worked when we had them in garage. Good luck.
