Oh it's so horrible isn't it. We used k&o pest control. They were good. They also have a shop in penge- if it happened again I would just go to the shop next time and get loads of poison and bait boxes and put them all over the place. That's what they did and it worked within two weeks.

I tried everything - including K&O and also the plug in. Nothing worked permanently. The exterminator recommended getting a cat as the best possible permanent solution. I like cats but my partner had never been that keen but feeling downtrodden with the mice and hearing the recommendation from the professional he agreed and off we went to Battersea.


BEST THING WE EVER DID - the cat caught a mouse in her first week! Her scent and prowling of the flat is clearly a deterrent and we haven't seen any sign of mice since her first kill so it's a pretty humane solution (except for her first victim but at least it was a natural death - hopefully over fairly quickly). Partner has been won round and likes the cat and our son is happy to have a pet. There was an item about the Foreign Office adopting a cat and apparently many old government buildings have cats because they are the best and most effective pest control/mouse deterrent there is.

    • Totally agree regarding not supporting chains. Gail’s was fine but last time I went in Feb this year, actually walked out Fayetteville looking at menu and waiting 15 minutes to even get glass of water and not busy at all. Staff gone down hill - sooner it goes the better… Always prefer to support non chains - so many lovely places with good food to choose from with pleasant staff who know about customer service and sadly, non English which says a lot for our culture, pubs are also becoming abit of a hit and miss affair but maybe just unlucky. At the end of the day all about the chef. Still abit unclear where new place is located - is it down the road from Goose Green where parade of shops are before Peckham Rye?  
    • Surely only where the local businesses offer clear advantages, otherwise you are rewarding what should be failure. I want to be served by a better bakery than Gail's, not a worse but local independent one. Certainly give a local independent some time to get the offer right, but don't buy goods which are worse and or more expensive just because the outlet isn't a chain. 
    • Let’s just boycott all chains in favour of local businesses.  Places like Gail’s popping up everywhere has a very damaging impact on small businesses. It’s just the same as the new empanadas place but on a bigger scale. I’ll say it a million times more, we hold the power with our choices. Let’s use our power to look after ourselves and our environment (which includes small local family businesses). And yes, I also love Chacarero.
