Mice - what don't they like?

[bigbadwolf]

They hate farmers wives, especially ones with a carving knife.

Had mice in one place, if you dont kill 'em, they breed. Traps with biscuits and peanut butter were good. Poison can result in them dying, rotting and smelling under your floorboards. At one point had a cat in the house, but it was too well fed, and if you cut back their food rations, they leave in disgust!

I'd rather mice than a cat

With Ladygooner on this one, buy Rat poison not mouse,if you go to a well known shop in LL you will get lot's of good advice on not using rat as it won't work, you will then be sold mouse poison which you will buy for ever. The amount of bromadiolone in mouse poison is to small the mice have become tolerent to it you just feed them and they breed quicker and stronger the Rat poison will work but it will be about 10 to 15 days before you notice results.

But is rat poison still just warfarin these days? So the little bastards eat it and then their blood thins so much they bleed internally to death behind skirting boadrs, under floorboards etc etc? I'd go for traps....

Does that mean all mice are atheists?

I can't remember... were there any mice on Noah's ark?

Hee hee!! (Sorry Keef)

Borrow a cat?

Traditional traps are the best method of getting rid of the vermin. Use a blob of peanut butter, check the traps every day and you'll have no bother with "dead mouse mess" or whatever it is you're worried about, Pierre. In any case, better a dead mouse to clean up than having to constantly wonder exactly where the little creatures have been crawling, each time you sit down to eat.

Pierre - why don't you try doing something with chilli?

[Jimbob]

they sure don,t like being whacked with the business end of a hurling stick.
