Plus I don't really love cats all that much.<br /><br />I used both glue & spring traps, but so far the mice have eaten all the bait and never sprung the traps! I put peanut butter down first, and they licked it all off. Then I tied cheese down with lots and lots of loops of string, so they couldn't just pull it off and run. They ate all the cheese and somehow managed to avoid springing the traps. I figure either way the mice will die and if they won't spring the snap traps, then glue traps it is.Rixahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07908864785513937876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-85214558077842040732009-06-04T04:31:42.589-04:002009-06-04T04:31:42.589-04:00I imagine you've already considered cats? How ...I imagine you've already considered cats? How about a good mouser?<br /><br />(Relatively young females are best in my experience; you can adopt a young adult from the Humane Society or local shelter, and you get the bonus of saving a life.)<br /><br />It's a great three-fer deal.....you get a good mouser, you save a kitty's life, AND you get a great pet for the kids!<br /><br />A cat may not be in the cards for you for allergy reasons or because you may want to wait till your kids are older.....but just thought I'd toss the idea out there. <br /><br />I've found kitties to be the best and least toxic solution to the mouse issue in general for our household (least toxic to us, majorly lethal to the mice!).<br /><br />Hope you find a good solution for your household.Well-Rounded Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04129621631406155340noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-79823473043898926662009-06-04T00:24:41.361-04:002009-06-04T00:24:41.361-04:00Dio looks like you!!!

Please consider using snap traps though instead of glue traps as they're much more humane. (Bait them with peanut butter and tie over the bait pad with a loop of panty hose so the mouse can't just grab the food and run.) <br /><br />Don't get me wrong - if they venture into my house they have what's coming to them. I just don't see the need to make them suffer if I don't have to.Lauranoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20642800.post-72965793157366389572009-06-03T14:33:11.957-04:002009-06-03T14:33:11.957-04:00Mint oil keeps mice away :) Dio is very handsome!...Mint oil keeps mice away :) Dio is very handsome!

I shudder even thinking about it. What was crazy was that I was scrupulously clean the whole time they were there. It was just awful!<br /><br />Dio, on the other hand, is adorable! I love how alert he looks when he's looking over Eric's shoulder. Such a beautiful boy you have there, Rixa. :)Kelleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16703334707738126703noreply@blogger.com
