The Secret is to go proper sick on the first then Nail it to the door all butchered. Cut one of his legs off & shove it up his **** sort of thing & slice his guts open, Nads off as well & shove them in his mouth.
Word will soon get around in the Mice world & they'll avoid you.
lol, reading that title just reminded me of a ex that used to refer to her time of the month as 'there is a mouse in the house'.
You can get a pack of spring-loaded mouse traps from most household utility stores. Set them and place them close to any open entrances such as fireplaces etc. and load them with chocolate. Mice go bananas for it.
Remember, where you've seen one, there's 20 you haven't.
We had quite a bad lot about 10 years ago, and this was in the city! Infestation of field mice during the winter. Our bedroom had a fireplace where they were coming from. One night, I was lying in bed and heard the trap shut, and for about 5 seconds afterwards a rapid "scuff-fff-f-f-f-f-f-f--f-fff" noise.
Got up in the morning and found it'd gotten two of them. The first went for the chocolate and got its neck/skull crushed by the trap. The second got whapped right down the nose/front of the head, but not actually in the trap. Must have went into some kind of horrid fit after getting whacked, which is what I heard.
They are cunning little blighters, and humane traps don't always work, no. However, we've had a single humane trap for years and it's never failed.Humane traps didn't work for me, wasted a fair but of money on themIf you release the mouse elswehere, it will become someone else's problem.
Cheers guys.
I've bought 3 humane traps. Going to bait them and set them now. Ill post pics of my new friend when I have caught him.
Im thinking peanut butter in two and for dessert I'll put nutella in the third.
Shoulda gone for spring traps tbh, but oh well. When you catch 'him', make sure to replace the trap. Where there's one, there's sure to be an entire family you haven't seen (yet). A bit like illegal immigrants.Post up when Abdul is caught. LOL
Why would that put you off getting spring traps? You don't want to hear it go off? Certainly the 'fit' is nothing to be concerned about, it's just nerves firing randomly because the brain suffered instant death by crushing. All dead stuff does this to one degree or another.![]()
slowly earn it's trust, keep it in your pocket for a few weeks
then all of a sudden pet it too hard, like in Of Mice and Men
