[jeanw]

killer that makes an adjustable sound killer that will blow out mice brains or stuns them so I can grab them and take their useless oood for nuttin bodies outside and smadh them flat with a brick and toss them in the woods. The A holes think they own the place they are so brazen they come out and run around the house even daytime, Dont even mention a cat. I dont want anything I have enough to take care of myself anymore.

I have to keep everthing in jugs and container . I have even hd some out in detached garage and they chewed a whole in a platic container
The A holes even chew there way fo off those large glue traps too.a

5gal bucket. Drill 2 holes at the top, 180 degrees from each other. Slide a plastic or wooden dowel through. Make sur it spins freely. Smear some peanut butter on the center. Fill pail with a couple gallons of water and make sure they have a way to get to the top of the bucket. St in a corner where they are sure to investigate. Empty and refill as needed.

Only way we control rodents on our small farm is, bait stations with good bait. We use Prowler soft bait. Traps in our case are close to worthless. Make sure to use stations and the posts that come with it to prevent translocation and poisoning untargeted species. We use several rat stations with larger holes and a bunch of regular stations. Stations we use are tomcat outposts.

Bucket traps work great, just check em often. Best of luck with your battle.

We have cats. They work. They live outside and get a large feeder filled once a week.

Living on a farm we get lots of mice and star-nosed moles
we do not kill them but just use a product that repels them
from the house. This works well and is environmentally friendly
You can make your own.

Victor® Professional Mouse Trap

Victor® Professional Mouse Trap from Wildlife Control Supplies

www.wildlifecontrolsupplies.com

72 mouse traps for $37. They’re cheaper if you look for them.

Find and seal any holes you can. It’ll save on heat loss too! Put enough traps out and you can even find the hard to locate holes. Peanut butter works fine as a bait. There’s no need to get fancy with traps.

I also use Victor traps in the basement. Drop the dead mice just off the driveway. Reuse trap. Think a fox picks the mice up.

Up until a few years ago, we had constant mouse ingress in our log cabin. The problem was worsened because we only get up there once every month or two. We used snap traps. The best snap traps we found were Snap-E traps.

They work great. Easy to empty, easy to set. The problem for us was dead and rotten mice.

It made the cabin a place we did not enjoy spending time at, or at least really reduced our enjoyment.

Finally I decided to fix the problem. I had a pest control guy come out and inspect the place. He told me everything I needed to do to eliminate access to the place.

We got rid of their food source. My dad fed the birds up there. All the seed (outside, shed) had to go in metal cans. Same with the suet. Eliminate their local food supply and they will have less desire to be around the house.

We got rid of stuff. My parents like to hang on to everything and used the cabin as a place to dump stuff they no longer used. The more stuff you have, the more places mice have to live and hide. The more stuff you have in your way, the harder it will be to access everywhere you need to in order to fix the problem.

Then I sealed everything. It took weeks worth of weekends. I pulled all the window trim. Filled all gaps with a stiff caulk. Filled large gaps with metal hardware cloth and spray foam. The roof vent was pulled off, and hardware cloth stapled under it. Added a chimney cap with screen. I sealed any log gaps and access to the roof insulation. When the outside was done, I did the same inside. Replaced the stove cleanout door with one that sealed. Hardware cloth and spray foam everywhere they could access the interior through the roof/ceiling insulation. More caulk.

Any hole or gap bigger than about 1/4" needs to be sealed.

We have not had any mice in the cabin in over three years. It can be done.

We have had half a dozen or more suicide mice jump down the chimney and end up in the stove cleanout or the wood stove, but they can't get into the cabin because I make sure the stove inlets are closed every time we leave. The cap screen has a good sized mesh. It keeps birds out, but I guess not mice.

They got into the direct vent propane furnace, but could not get into the cabin through the furnace. I wrapped more hardware cloth around the inlet/outlet of the furnace so that has not happened since.

There will always be more mice. You cannot trap or poison them into submission.
