I've heard that you can catch them with a five gallon pail that has the bottom covered with whole flax seed, and some kind of bait if you want. You set it near something that they can climb on to get in. Once they are in the pail they can't jump up to get out because the flax seed is too slippery. You still have to dispose of the mice somehow. I haven't tried this.

i bought tin cat mouse traps, bait with chicken feed or sunflower seeds. to empty them just dump them in a bucket of water.....i'm down to about 3-4 per day now, but in the beginning was catching 10-20 a night. this year is bad for mice!!!!!

I'm having success with the good old wooden traps. One of the mice had got into the wall between garage and lounge.

My sister told me I should maybe get a ball bearing mouse catcher, but I haven't been able to get any information on them. Anyone on here ever tried one? How well do they work? Required maintenance or upkeep?

I am sure someone here can tell me more about them. Thanks.

Hello,

If you want to get rid of mice, I am sharing a simple homemade formula to get rid of them. Mice aren't enormous fanatics of peppermint. Its new fragrance may smell extraordinary to you, yet it will send mice running for the slopes. Place a little peppermint oil on cotton balls and place them in portals, kitchen cupboards, and suspected passage focuses.

On the off chance that you need to go the additional mile, take a stab at planting mint along the outside of your home to discourage mice and ward off them from your home out and out.

On the off chance that you incline toward not to utilize oil, you can utilize mint leaves or mint toothpaste.

I'm 95% positive that the two sonic sound plug-ins (or whatever they are called) that I have in my kitchen are working, keeping the mice away. Haven't seen any evidence of mice.
I agree, a quick death is better.

I couldn't use those sonic things. I could hear them, they were awful! @soly10 I will try the peppermint oil, I have some to hand!
