    Mice

    Has anyone had an issue with Mice in home? The Mice are also to small to set off the Mice traps.

    Probably a live trap or a bucket trap.

    If they are tiny you don't need to drown them. They can fall into the container then released.

    No problem with mice but the whole state has a real problem with the rats who seem to run free in the state capitol.

    I wish someone could answer that question.

    It's just not the voters... it's also the people who are active in the local groups that support the candidates that have these agendas.

    Awww, you made me look. I had issues last year. So, I check under my kitchen stove every other Friday.
    Well, I looked today instead of waiting until Friday. There's turds under there again.

    That gives me the creeps.

    I sent an email to Fox pest control to move up my appointment. In August, I told them to take the bait boxes away since I didn't have issues.

    I'm surprised how many people won't do simple stuff like catch mice or rats. Or at least have a neighbor help with something like that.

    Good idea but I wouldn't want to store it around the house with my dog and sometimes my granddogs around.
    I have 2 fears rodents and heights. I'd rather someone else handle the rodents.

    The mouse man is here putting out my bait boxes. He said they should be moving outside on the weekend since it will be warmer

    Simple solutions are the best: I have a cat. Organic, low-cost and cold-blooded but effective as all hell.

    Buffalo Animal Shelter and the local SPCA always seem to have a surplus of animals waiting to be adopted.

    I know this sounds like a liberal, feel-good, hippy-dippy, tree-hugging solution (and as a result will be rejected out of hand), but this does work.

    I had mice. Added one cat two years ago, I no longer have mice.
    Even as a great rock is not shaken by the wind, the wise man is not shaken by praise or by blame.

    I really don't like poisons. They tend to move up the food chain. Owls, fox, and hawks etc eat mice and rats. As Colonel Sun said cats are organic.

    That's good for people who like cats. Some cats are so proud to show their masters what they've done, they bring the vermin home to show them. YUCK!
    If you don't have an outside cat, then you have a litter box. YUCK!

    But it's a very good sound solution for people who do like cats
