Title: Killing mice?
Post by: infowarrior on February 09, 2014, 10:12

I've got a big mouse problem on my allotment. They're everywhere. In the tunnel, chicken coop etc.  What are some good ways of killing large numbers?  Anyone had/got this problem?  Don't really want to go down the standard mouse trap route as I reckon that would take ages to get them all.

                                            Cheers.

Have  a look at the various bucket traps on youtube.
These are fairly eco friendly if you do not mind finishing the meeces off yourself.

Top name for a cat ! :)

Trouble is they are not selective or humane and they leave little messages in your pristine seedbeds ! :nowink:
