The trouble with poisoning them is they creep off somewhere inaccessible to die and then stink the place out.
A trap would be my choice.

Put peanut butter down in my shed as they were eating the sack of bird food. Nothing. Mind you, I haven't had any more bird food taken either. I reckon they've cleared off. Last seen heading west. Some talk about a garage with cosy classic car  :lol

Conventional traps and peanut butter, as others have said, they love the stuff!


If you would like me to pop over and point out all the faults with trap placement and point out all the holes in all your stuff I would be more than willing to come and "help".  ;)

 They came into my house under the floor boards during the cold weather this winter.  Heard them one night.  Got some traps and peanut butter the next day.  Caught two in humane traps and released some distance away, one other got snared in a conventional trap.  All sorted in under 48hrs.

The trouble with poisoning them is they creep off somewhere inaccessible to die and then stink the place out.

Also they develop resistance to the poison and you find the pellets nibbled on for the grain inside and the poison shell lying on the ground! :(

Post by: tommyardin on 15 April 2018, 12:39:23 am
Some might say its cruel, but then so is a mouse trap, poison is a slow and painful death and an air rifle pellet to the head is a difficult shot with two bikes and a classic car in the garage.
But this method is no risk to anyone, and to be honest is quite exciting going out to the garage/shed in the mornings. 
You need to be careful to get the balance right on the batten or wooded ruler plus a small amount of crumbs around the bench end of ruler and a line of biscuit crumbs along ruler leading to 1/2 biscuit balance at the end of the ruler.
The rest is self explanatory and it works much to my delight.

Following on from Tommy's suggestion, this one is guaranteed to work

No,no,no I have caught mice this way honestly it works, once the ruler starts to tip the mouse is toast they cannot back up and them jumping about in panic cause the ruler to tip faster.

A fully grown mouse can get through a gap the size of a 5pence piece now the cold weather snap has gone they will go back out side. An old fashioned trap is the best way to rid your shed of them. Look for the runs they use easy to see these runs they will be discoloured as mice urinate constantly when moving around place your traps there. Block up any holes where they are getting in if you can find them. Try not to use poison bait unless you put it in lockable bait stations and check traps and bait stations every day. Dispose of the bodies by sealing in poly bag and putting in the dustbin, if you use poison most are anti coagulants which can will effect dogs, cats and birds if they eat the dead mice.


On the bright side where you have mice you wont have rats and visa versa,  Good hunting

Morning all....well , just been out to the garage to check the traps baited with chocolate spread last night , two traps and it looks like ive caught mum and dad.......as a bit of a softie southerner I feel a bit guilty now knowing the young uns are on thier own and will probably starve , so probably best to try and find the nest and save them and return to the east where they came from    ;)






Best thing to do now  ?.................its sunday and dry , iam off on the FAZER    :thumbup

You could use a 'humane' trap.

 Having said that I caught mine during a cold snap.   They seemed a little slow in the morning, looked to be soaking in their own sweat and piss - must be distressing to be stuck in a trap for hours.  Then got dumped in a field in the middle of nowhere.  Lots of folks said, they’ll be fine, but I dunno.


 Traditional trap is cheap, quick and effective.


 
For real sadists there are the various versions of the DIY water trap.  Though you can make a ‘humane’ version with just enough water to stop em jumping out of the bucket but not enough to drown em.

Just got back from a 2hr blast on the FAZER....as good as ever and great to get out at last  :thumbup


checked the traps and i have another 2 , but theres a twist , i was expecting young'uns as the picture of the first one i caught , the 2 caught with the traps i think were mum and dad but these are teenages , somewhere in the middle...makes me think this is just the tip of the iceberg  :eek


5 caught up to now , my guess is it will be well into double figures.......


cheers for all replies....is there anything a bunch of foccers cant do ?
Title: Re: fazer under attack !!!!!!!
Post by: darrsi on 15 April 2018, 01:31:44 pm
They tend to stick to running next to walls so the traps are better suited placed against the edge of them, plus you have less chance of treading on them yourself.

Hi darrsi...not seen any mice in the garage it would seam they are all in the car , ive been putting the traps in the footwell on the passenger side which is where I caught the first one , not sure if the nest is under the dash or the seat , horse hair in the seat so that was prime site for a nest but have given it a good thumping and nothing dropping out...I'll give it untill 2pm and check the traps again...

 :finger


Or for the really caring types you can poison them so that their blood congeals and they die a painful death with the added possibility of perhaps poisoning someones cat to the bargain, or, alternatively you you can snap their back with a spring trap or maybe trap them by a front leg disjointing that leg slowly as the spring force bears tighter down on the limb as it eats into the flesh, not a lot of hope you a 3 legged mouse possibly with an infection in the stump as it decays. But Hey Ho! you don't want to drown them in a minute or so do you?

 Simpler version of Tommy’s trap. 



! No longer available (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eF6xwUSkT1k#)

 
A beer can would be ideal.  If you don’t want to drown em you still need a little water to reduce their ability to jump, they are really good jumpers when they need to be.
As for traditional mouse traps, these are good as the bait pot is recessed, https://www.toolstation.com/shop/Cleaning+%26+Pest+Control/d260/Pest+Control/sd3217/Sure-Set+Mouse+Trap/p26996 (https://www.toolstation.com/shop/Cleaning+%26+Pest+Control/d260/Pest+Control/sd3217/Sure-Set+Mouse+Trap/p26996) so they gotta stick their nose in, and the trap gets em on the heid or neck every time (so I’m told!).
Be careful with your traps, they break yer fingers.

We used to have them in the loft of our old house.  I used to put 2 traps up there and would catch mice every day for quite a while.  One of the traps was above our bedroom, I remember one night heaving a snap and a couple of seconds of flapping about, another one bites the dust!

I killed one with a mallet once but then felt really guilty afterwards. I saw it run under a piece of board so crept up with a mallet flipped the board over and whack a mouse. The thing is I never thought had chance at all and there was no danger of actually hitting it.
I then brought those linked to in Toolstation and they do work very well but as has been said the mouse gets soaked in pis and sh1t and all of that then gets stuck in the mechanism which is then a disgusting mess to clean before you can re use it.

A few years ago, got fed up with (what I thought was) a couple of grey tree rats emptying the bird table on a daily basis. Tried scaring em off/traps etc, still kept coming back. So, i decided to buy an air rifle, .22. Over the next few months, I shot and killed over 60 of the bastards. Yes, 60. I reckon I must have reduced them to an almost unsustainable level, as only rarley now do we ever see one knocking around. If Id skinned em, Id have had enough for a couple of Davy Crockett suits and hats. On the plus side, the garden is now full daily with all sorts of birds that we've not seen around for donkeys years

I've been doing the same ( shooting the squirrels) only mine are a reddish colour not grey. Think it might be the red clay rubbing off on their fur when they're down their burrows.
Think they're all young un's too as they seem smaller than usual.

Anyway, so far I've bagged over a hundred and haven't seen any about for a good few months now.

 I just used a bucket of warm soapy water and a toothbrush.  Pish and shit cleaned up nae bother, but the peanut butter took a bit of scrubbing.
 
Just make sure you clean your toothbrush thoroughly afterwards before brushing yer teeth.

Another body today ,10 in total now , kill rate is slowing so might be winning the battle , was away from home last night and it looked as if the last victim had been in the trap for a while , luckily mrs red is out this evening so was able to give the traps a good clean with a pink toothbrush and rebait the traps... ;)

One more this morning , slightly bigger than average this one , no match for the trap though , traps are endorsed by rentokill think I paid £ 2.97 each , cheap and effective , upto 11 now , see what today brings....

Post by: steve 10562cc on 18 April 2018, 07:39:24 am
You need to keep setting and checking your traps for at least another 2 to 4 weeks after you find your last body to be sure you get them all. Try to find any holes they may be getting in through and block, remove any food stuffs or put in metal or glass containers. When I did my pest control training the first thing we were told by the instructor is mice and rats think of only 3 things breeding/sex, food, nesting. I am at the moment getting rid of an infestation of mice in my own garage my own fault left some fishing bait out in bags not mice proof containers.     
Title: Re: fazer under attack !!!!!!!
Post by: tommyardin on 18 April 2018, 08:20:08 am
Don't tell me mice love boilIes, flavour preference? The renown Hampshire mice prefer sinking pellet.
Actually now you have said that I will go check my fishing cupboard in the shed for the little vermin.
Someone once said that at any time you are never more than a few feet away from a rat, they must have known my boss when I was working.
I am sat in my bed typing this so I am hoping that statement is not true. :eek

We've also had mice in garage/shed this winter. Another good bait is grapes, lots of success, sometimes with a smear of peanut butter butter closely to attract them.

In our old house, we got an infestation of mice and after catching about 30 in traps over 3 nights, I bought a 3 pack of the plug-in Sonic Rodent Repeller units that are supposed to drive them away.

After the first night of having them plugged in, no mice in the traps, same again after 2nd night. During the 3rd day, our neighbour told us of her sudden infestation - I got some of the Sonic Repellers for her and within 24hrs, her infestation had gone.

In the last 10 years, I've used these repellers in my garage and house and have not seen another mouse.

Same story with my mother in law's house - she had families of mice in her basement/cellar at the end of last year - "Pest Control" specialists spent 3 months taking her money, taking out dozens of mice in traps and putting down poison. But every morning, at least one trap had been triggered.

24hrs after putting 3 Sonic Repeller units in the basement/cellar on New Years Eve and a couple in the kitchen & living room (just in case they moved upstairs) - all of the traps were empty the next day and have been empty every day since.

I've been converted - I'd definitely give them a try (it's worth £15-£20 to find out IMO (B & Q have a few different types/brands).

Last year we had a buzzard fly into our patio door, and it fell to the ground unconscious. After googling what to do, and ringing the local bird sanctuary, they told me to put it in a cardboard box and bring it to them to recuperate. So I get my toughest bike gloves on, helmet, jacket ..... ALL THE GEAR, ALL THE TIME. As I bent down one eye opened, it looked at me, shrieked and focced off!  :( [/font][/quote]

I am sad, and do Geocaching, I've even been known to nip off on a LOFO day out to grab one (I go round with a GPS hunting tuppaware).  There was one cache where people were saying it was hard to get to due to too many stinging nettles.  I stopped off on the way home on the bike wearing full leathers and retrieved the cache with ease...

best way to remove mice and rats from your home.................................. strange but it works if you know anyone with a ferret or just go to a pet store that has them and get some of the used bedding and put some in the corners of your garage give it two days and you wont have any at all................................................................................
